This lot of 26 maps features all you see in the above scans (one with all of the maps then two more somewhat closer photos). National Geographic has long included maps with their magazines (going back to nearly the very beginning of the magazines run), and this lot features some fine examples from the mid to late 1980's. Most appear to have never been displayed, but they do exhibit some minor storage wear. They will be shipped with the utmost care. Great for any cartophile!

All international packages ship vie Priority (if less than $250, including shipping) or Express (if more than $250, including shipping). I cannot falsify customs forms by declaring a lower value than the final bid price realized. Also, please be aware per eBay policy you are responsible for any such fees, duties, taxes, etc. your government may impose upon you before they will release the package to you. It is the responsibility of the bidder to determine what their customs fees, duties, or taxes may be. Please be aware that with international packages, USPS may sometimes release the package to a local carrier for the final delivery of the item to the buyer. If that is the case it is the responsibility of the buyer to, if necessary, make arrangements for the delivery of the package, for it to be signed for upon delivery, provide instructions to the carrier where to leave the package, etc.
~Certificate of Authenticity/Provenance:Excepting pack-pulled autograph trading cards, CGC Signature Series, signed Sideshow prints, and like collectibles, all autographed items Vault Collectibles sells were personally witnessed, by myself, being signed by the writer, artist, or celebrity in question. No third party is involved. Further, art sketches - and most published original art I sell - were obtained directly from the artist themselves.
