1912 Europe Wall Map
Two years before the guns of August, Europe looked nothing like it does now. This 1912 Europe wall map holds that vanished political geography in place: the Austro-Hungarian Empire still stretching from Bohemia to the Adriatic, the German Empire holding East Prussia and Alsace-Lorraine, the Russian Empire reaching west across Finland and Congress Poland, and the last Ottoman foothold in the Balkans on the eve of the First Balkan War. No Yugoslavia, no Czechoslovakia, no independent Poland.
It is a reproduction, not an original sheet. Map Shop scans the 1912 original at high resolution and digitally restores the print, clearing defects while keeping the engraved line work and period color of the source.

My 9 year old begged for these maps for his birthday. Now you could say he has some special interests and you could add that he is intrigued by boarder changes in history but you could not say he doesn’t sit in his room for hours looking at these maps and giving us more facts or quizzes. We love our maps 10/10 is his rating for both!
Europe Wall Map, 1912
Please note that these are reproductions, not original historical maps. Each map is created by scanning the original at high resolution and printing a new version from that scan, which we then ship to you.
In some cases, we restore the map to remove defects. In others, we preserve the signs of aging as they add character. Review the features of the specific map you’re viewing so you know what to expect. If you prefer a cleaner look, we also offer modern maps of most locations.
We want you to love your map. If you aren't satisfied, returns are accepted within 30 days for unfinished products.* Please contact us within 30 days of receiving your product to receive a return authorization number. Please note that shipping costs are non-refundable unless we made a mistake with your order.
*Finished products such as railed, mounted, and framed maps are not returnable because we make these on-demand just for you and do not stock them. If you have any questions about whether your order qualifies for a return, please contact us.
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.

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.
