South America Essential Wall Map
Students can name the Amazon long before they can place it. The South America Essential wall map from Kappa Map Group closes that gap for grades 4 through 8, pairing clean color-coded political boundaries with enough terrain shading to show why the continent’s rivers, cities, and deserts sit where they do. Legibility drives the design, so country names and capitals stay readable from the back row of a classroom.
Map Shop finishes it to order: paper, lamination, foam core mounting, black or walnut rails and frames, or a spring roller with backboard for teachers who need the wall space back between lessons. Useful in middle school geography rooms, home school setups, and social studies departments.

Thank you! The map is absolutely gorgeous.
It got dented a bit in shipping. I submitted a UPS report for it, but I will cancel it.
I rollled it out and it has some repeated denting, but it will work just fine.
Really lovely map, quality and coloring.

Transform your wall map into a ready-to-hang centerpiece! Our professional framing and railing services often cost less than visiting a local framer. Choose your finishing option during checkout and receive your map ready to display immediately and hassle-free.
Paper finishing is the most economical option. Most maps are printed on premium 36lb paper. Waterproof paper is also available for functional maps that may be used outdoors.
Maps are printed, then run through our laminator that applies 1.7mil-thick satin-gloss lamination to the front and back. You can use map stickers and wet-erase markers.
Maps are printed, then laminated with 1.7mil-thick satin lamination onto 1/4″-thick foam core. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers with our mounted maps.
First, we laminate the map, then mount wood rails at the top and bottom. The front side of each rail features a black or walnut finish, while the sides and back are unfinished wood. Sawtooth hardware is attached to the back of the top rail so it's ready to hang. You can use stickers or wet-erase markers on your laminated map. We recommend a mounted or framed option if you'd like to use map pins to mark locations.

Sawtooth hardware is attached to the back of the top rail so it's ready to hang. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on your map. This option will lay clean and flat against the wall, unlike the laminated with rails option.
Maps are laminated onto foam core, then secured into the frame. The engineered molding is made from recycled wood in either a black or walnut finish that wraps around the entire map. Most moldings are 2″ wide by 3/4″ deep, but maps 24″ x 36″ and smaller use a 1.25″ wide molding. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on all our framed maps. Ready-to-hang sawtooth hardware or wire hanging loops are included.
