I picked up this set of 7 vintage pull down school maps, rack included, at Hunt & Gather last month and am dying to find that perfect place in our house for them. I can't decide if I should keep them together or to separate them.
They are in great condition and have awesome details, like these metal pull tabs. I know, normally I am using maps to cover tables, trays and chairs, but these guys are perfect just as they are.Vintage school items are big in the design world. Check out these inspiring ways to use maps as wall art. And with this being back to school week for many...it brings out the student in all of us.

Love LOVE vintage maps. I think it's safe to say that no matter where or how you display them, they'll become a real focal point :)
Yearrs ago a shelter mag published a spread on James Beard's house. His kitchen was wallpapered entirely in maps.
wow, you find some really great stuff! those are awesome!
I'm so jealous of your maps! LOVE them, especially those great tags on them! Vintage school supplies are a bit of an obsession with me... :)
