Despite the seemingly low price, Rand McNally succeed in delivering a low cost, high quality map.Out of the box the map is folded up and the creases are extremely evident, though after having it hanging for a bit the creases have already started to diminish and I can see that they will eventually be nonexistant. My initial reaction was to be extremely surprised at the size of it! I had read the product description and seen the size, but it somehow hadn't registered with me just how big it would be. It's huge! That said, it is very nice looking and would definitely add character to an empty wall (as it has for me!).The map itself is very detailed and seems to be designed perfectly for the size of the print. Very easily read and good for marking various locations with pins or what have you. I successfully hung it on my wall via a series of small nails with wide heads, though I know there are various good options as far as frames go. Regardless of how it is hung on the wall, it will look good. Even with out the frame it really looks very nice on the wall and I could see purchasing another for somewhere else in the house.Overall I'd give it 4 out of 5 stars, only losing points for two small issues. One would be the creases that I mentioned. Even if these go away, it's still a bit of a pain to have to deal with, especially if the map is going to be used right away, or if it is needed for some important use immediately. I think the best choice here would be to just stretch it out and let it sit a while before hanging. If it was framed that issue would matter even less. The second issue I've had is the thickness of the print. It's actually incredibly thin. I worry that this could cause many customers issues with tearing if they aren't careful with the map.
