Antarctica 1939 Wall Map

This Antarctica 1939 wall map was originally produced by the Commonwealth Department of the Interior, Property and Survey Branch.

The map depicts territories and dependencies, with relief shown by shading and spot heights. Depths are indicated by contours, soundings and bathymetric tints.

Along with numerous reference and historical notes, it includes two inset maps: 

• The coastal regions of the Australian Antarctic Territory
• The continent in relation to the principal land masses in the southern hemisphere.
