It folds to about 28 x 21 cm.  Standard size you'd commonly see I'd guess.

Does it have fold marks that suggest it once folded to supplement a book or a journal article?

Maybe it is a clue to the whereabouts of the 2 escaped NY convicts.

Subject: World map with strange routing printed on it

Hi all,

OK, I'll try sending you this image again.  Previously it was too big for attachment.

This is the image of a Hammond world map I asked about earlier, that shows some kind of routing from the southeast pacific, eventually  making its way to Bangladesh.  If anyone has any ideas of what historical even this routing may represent, your wisdom would be really appreciated.  Maybe it's some kind of bird migration.  I have no clue.

Thanks again,
Rick Grapes
