This French school map poster was published by Editions Rossignol, Montmorillon (Vienne), a well-known French educational publisher whose maps were widely distributed in French primary and secondary schools from the mid-20th century. The series numbering visible on the maps indicates these are plates No. 3 and No. 4 from the same collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne side presents \"France - Voies d'Eau et Ports\" (Waterways and Ports), mapping navigable rivers, canals and port capacities across the country. Rivers and canals are coded in blue and red according to traffic volume, and ports are shown with graduated circles indicating tonnage. The reverse side shows \"France - Climats\" (Climates), illustrating the five main climate zones -- oceanic, Parisian, transitional, Aquitaine and Mediterranean -- with wind rose diagrams at key cities including Paris, Brest, Bordeaux, Nice and Ajaccio, alongside rainfall data in days per year. Both sides use a clear color-coded system with printed legends. The cartography is clean and reads well at a distance, consistent with classroom wall display use. The scale on both maps is 1\/1,350,000. Printed by IGN Michard, Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe poster measures approximately 90cm x 75cm \/ 35.4\" x 29.5\" as stated by the seller. The paper shows light age toning and handling wear consistent with former classroom use, with some creasing visible along fold lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA practical and graphic document for anyone interested in French geography, mid-century educational design or vintage cartography. Works well framed as wall art or as a reference piece in a study or library setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-optimised --\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58044408332632,"sku":"223593007266_62D4_6E75","price":212.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/57_048ee823-0402-4847-8f0a-0b1e479fff8c.jpg?v=1787241640","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/french-educational-school-map-poster-20082634","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
