French Educational Map Poster A double-sided French educational map poster produced for classroom use, this is a genuine vintage school wall chart from a French publisher. Each side presents a detailed French educational map poster covering a distinct coastal region of France: one side shows the Mediterranean coast (Cote de la Mediterranee, map no. 20) and the reverse shows the Atlantic coast (Cote de l'Atlantique, map no. 19). Published by Editions Rossignol, Montmorillon (Vienne), and printed by Imp. Michard, Paris, this is a period piece from a well-known French educational publisher whose wall maps were standard classroom equipment in French schools from the 1960s through the 1980s. Both maps are printed in full color with elevation shading ranging from green lowlands through yellow and orange to deep amber highlands, with blue river and canal networks clearly marked. The Mediterranean side features an inset map of Corsica and a detailed plan of the Port de Marseille. Key cities are marked with red dots sized according to population. Rivers including the Rhone, Durance, Var, and Herault are labeled, alongside geographic regions such as Provence, the Massif Central, and the Alpes. The Atlantic side covers the Breton coastline south through the Gironde to the Pyrenees, with cities including Nantes, Bordeaux, La Rochelle, and Biarritz. Both maps include a full legend in French with scale bars. The poster measures approximately 90cm x 75cm (35.4" x 29.5"). The sheet is printed on sturdy paper stock typical of mid-century French school charts. General condition is consistent with vintage school use; minor handling wear may be present across the surface. A functional graphic document suitable for framing, this type of Rossignol school map appeals to collectors of vintage French ephemera, geography enthusiasts, and those decorating with mid-century French educational material. The double-sided format makes it a rare find in single-sheet form. 95% of my items are tariff-free to the US. Condition: Used. Category: Art › Art Posters.
