I don't know why, but I really want a pull down map - you know, the kind that used to be rolled up above the chalkboard in elementary school? We didn't have a map of France in my little classroom in Iowa, but if I had one in my house today this is the one I would want!

I may or may not be able to find you one of those in the antique shops near my apartment :)
Yes please! But how on earth would you get it back home? Hmmm.
i've always wanted one of those too! all of the ones i see, though, are very very expensive. :(
I bet you wish you could go back to Berkeley now. That one cool guy at Alameda flea market had tons of them! The pull-down anatomical charts were also pretty awesome.
And I don't think they were that expensive. Maybe $50-$100 each.
Wow, the pull-down map is really a relic of a bygone era. How charming. xoxoxo
Yes, I love old maps too. Especially the pull-down variety!
Pull-down maps are so fun. I was always fascinated with them in school. They're there and then they're not! I have a huge antique-style world map on the wall in my living room. It's not pull-down though.
