A well-known publisher of French educational materials, Rossignol produced these wall maps for primary and secondary schools throughout the mid-to-late twentieth century. This example is numbered No. 17 and No. 18, making it part of a numbered series, and constitutes a genuine French school geography map poster of the type that hung in classrooms across France for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide No. 17 is titled \"Le Rhin et ses affluents, la Meuse - l'Escaut\" and presents a detailed physical and political map covering the Rhine, Meuse and Scheldt river systems across France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and Germany. Cities are marked with red dots scaled by population, rivers are shown in blue, and elevation is indicated by a graduated color key ranging from plains to alpine zones above 1000m. Side No. 18, titled \"Cotes de la Manche et de la Mer du Nord,\" maps the English Channel and North Sea coastlines from Brittany to the Pas de Calais and across to southern England. The reverse also includes two informational sections: bar charts showing monthly river flow rates for the Seine, Garonne, Loire, Rhone and Rhine, and a comparative longitudinal profile of those five rivers from source to sea. The paper shows light age toning consistent with display and storage use, with no significant tears visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe poster measures approximately 90cm x 75cm \/ 35.4\" x 29.5\", as stated by the seller.
