Most of you remember this one..but in the USGS Professional Paper 1453 (An
Album of Map Projections) there is a projection very suitable for today....
so if you forgot to get your sweetheart a card (like I did!!) ...this one
will do in a pinch...
figure 47B, p. 115 is the Werner Projection (shaped like a heart)
Cheers
James
