Antarctica Political Wall Map

This map from Kappa Map Group gives high school geography classes the one continent textbooks usually reduce to a footnote. Most students never see how the territorial claims slice the ice into sectors, or how far the Antarctic Circle actually sits from the pole. Part of the Advanced Political series, this edition is built for grades 9 through 12 and reads clearly from the back row.

Published by Kappa Map Group.
Color coding separates territorial claims across the continent.
Four thematic insets: population density, annual rainfall, energy and manufacturing and trade, and climate.
Latitude and longitude lines with major latitudes emphasized.
Shaded relief gives depth to ice sheets, ranges, and coastal physical features.
Ordered here on a spring roller with backboard, ready to mount above a whiteboard.

Other finishing options at Map Shop include lamination, foam core mounting, and rails or framing in black or walnut molding. A solid pick for geography departments, AP Human Geography rooms, and home school parents teaching polar regions.

Map Finishing Options

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.

The Map Shop finishing options: layered blue map with ornate border and corner fold, showcasing precise margins and printable edge details for cartography enthusiasts.

Paper

Paper finish is our most economical option. Most maps are printed on premium 36 lb paper. Waterproof paper is also available for functional maps used outdoors.

Laminated

Maps are printed, then run through our laminator, which applies 1.7 mil satin lamination to the front and back. You can use map stickers and wet-erase markers.

Mounted

Maps are printed, then laminated with 1.7 mil satin lamination onto 1/4″-thick foam core. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on our mounted maps.

Laminated with Rails

We laminate the map, then attach wood rails at the top and bottom. The front of each rail has a black or walnut finish, while the sides and back are unfinished wood. Sawtooth hardware on the back of the top rail makes it ready to hang. You can use stickers or wet-erase markers on your laminated map. If you'd like to mark locations with map pins, we recommend a mounted or framed option.

Mounted with Rails

We laminate the map onto foam core, then attach wood rails at the top and bottom. The front of each rail has a black or walnut finish, while the sides and back are unfinished wood. Sawtooth hardware on the back of the top rail makes it ready to hang. You can use map pins, stickers, or wet-erase markers on your map. Unlike Laminated with Rails, this option lies clean and flat against the wall.

Framed

Maps are laminated onto foam core, then secured in the frame. The engineered molding is made from recycled wood in a black or walnut finish and 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.

Gallery Wrapped Canvas

The map is printed on 21 mil, 2:1 poly/cotton matte canvas, then stretched over 1.5″-deep heavy wood stretcher bars. The corners are braced with additional bars, and hanging hardware is attached to the back so your piece is ready to hang.

Pull-Down Spring Roller

Maps are printed and laminated, then attached to a metal spring roller mounted on a powder-coated steel backboard. The roller and backboard slide onto a steel bracket that mounts to your wall. A pull-down bar lets you lower the map and retract it when you're done.
