Cartography

To leap into the past you just have to take a look at an old map. We love to look at them. Framed on the wall or just out of a little box on a rainy day to 'freak out' about the cool little details. Our maps are special to us. A map of Australia and New Zealand from 1942, in German, who has this? Or a map of Antarctica from the 70s with Cyrillic text? What about the UK, the GDR, Cuba or Afghanistan in the 1970s? We've got you covered.
