Vintage Weber Costello World History Series map of Latin America. Classroom map from Chicago Heights, Illinois. Same folding cloth-backed school format as the Reality Series sheets, different series: World History Series, not Reality Series.
Cloth / fabric-backed folding sheet, not a loose paper poster and not a roller pull-down. Paper map mounted on fabric so it can fold, hang, and hold together at the creases. Opens to wall size; folds along the printed grid into a compact packet. Hanging holes along the top edge.
What it shows
Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America, with inset world and regional panels. Color-coded countries. City population legend. Side and bottom teaching panels: Latin American trade diagram, U.S. trade with Latin America 1950, population of Latin America 1950, and related history / commerce callouts.
Date
Printed data is dated 1950 (population table and U.S. trade with Latin America 1950). Best estimate circa 1950–1952.
