Historical Regional Wall Map | Cross-Border Landscapes & Political Detail | Large Format (918 × 646 mm) | Premium Finishes

A sweeping post-war portrait of the Pacific Northwest and western Canada, Northwestern United States & Canadian Provinces captures a vast and interconnected region defined by mountains, forests, and frontier development. Published by National Geographic in June 1950, this map forms the sixth and final sheet in a celebrated series documenting the United States between 1945 and 1950.

Blending political clarity with geographic depth, it extends beyond national borders to show how landscapes and communities flow seamlessly across the U.S.–Canada divide.
