Description :

A fascinating mystery bundle of vintage maps and educational prints, including pieces such as Washington’s Northwest Passages, Marine Fishes of the North Pacific, a large Alaska map, and a vivid Mountain Lake landscape print. Various additional rolled charts and illustrated maps are included — some possibly mid-century reproductions and educational lithographs.

Historical Note:
Mid-20th-century printed maps and educational wall charts like these were used in schools, libraries, and civic spaces across North America. They often featured hand-drawn topography or naturalist illustrations and have become collectible for their artistry, craftsmanship, and regional history.

Most appear printed between the 1950s–1980s on heavyweight paper. Some curling and light edge wear consistent with age and storage.

Approx. 10–12 total prints (mixed sizes). Sold as-is, unrolled condition.
