Alaska Maps

Alaska’s sweeping coastlines and vast interior are captured unevenly on the state’s historic charts, where detailed coastal ports contrast with sparse inland surveys. In this collection, including maps dating to 1867 and a 1937 map of Mount McKinley National Park, viewers can compare earlier place names and shifting priorities in how the landscape was recorded.

Alaska’s long coastline shaped much of its early commercial mapping. Russian fur traders and maritime expeditions relied on knowledge of islands, harbors, and coastal passages, while the interior remained less fully represented on published charts. These maps recorded only part of a landscape already known and traveled by Alaska Native peoples for generations. The United States purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867, and subsequent federal surveys expanded geographic documentation as mining and transportation drew increasing attention inland.

This collection includes maps dating to 1867, the year of that political transition, as well as a 1937 map of Mount McKinley National Park. Established in 1917, the park protected a portion of the Alaska Range and its wildlife decades before Alaska became a state in 1959. Its historical name places the 1937 map in an earlier chapter of the protected area now known as Denali National Park and Preserve.

When comparing historical maps of Alaska, look for shifts in place names, the prominence of coastal settlements, and the detail given to rivers and inland routes. Those choices reveal the priorities and geographic knowledge of their makers. Sparse detail should not be mistaken for an uninhabited landscape: it can reflect the limits of a survey or the particular purpose of a map.

How to Choose the Right Map

Start with the place or subject that matters, then choose the artwork, format, and size that best fit your space and story.

Choose a hometown, favorite destination, family location, military base, park, lake, railroad, or other place that carries a personal connection.

Try searching by a city, county, state, landmark, year, or specific place name.

Look closely at the map year, geographic coverage, orientation, labels, landmarks, and overall visual style. Different maps of the same place can tell very different stories.

Use the product images and zoom tools to inspect streets, names, boundaries, and historic features.

Select an unframed print for flexibility, a ready-to-hang solid wood frame for a finished presentation, or a wrapped canvas for a clean gallery-style appearance.

Framed prints include protective plexiglass and arrive ready to hang.

Consider the wall, furniture, viewing distance, and amount of visual impact you want. Larger maps make striking focal points, while smaller sizes work well in offices, studies, entryways, and grouped displays.

Measure the available wall area before choosing your final print size.

Every map is available in several display options

Choose from museum-quality unframed prints, framed prints with solid wood frames, or 1.5-inch wrapped canvas.

Canada Maps

Canada is a country located within North America, covering over 9.98 million square kilometers (or 3.85 million square miles). Its border shared with the United States stretches out around 8,891 kilometers (5,525 miles), making this the longest nation border in the world. With a population of around 37 million inhabitants, the three most populated cities are Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. The capital of Canada is Ottawa. Canada considers itself a “cultural mosaic” due to the amount of languages and different cultures within the country. The official languages of Canada are English and French, however Chinese, Punjabi, Spanish, Tagalog, and Arabic are fairly common to find as well. Canada is a country surrounded by all forms of water. In fact, counting the area including the water found in Canada, it is the second largest country in the world following Russia. Did you know that Little Manitou Lake has a mineral salt concentration of 180,000 mg per liter, making this extremely buoyant water, similar to the Dead Sea in the Middle East. Because of its great size, there exists a wide variety of climates found within Canada. The ocean currents surrounding the country play a key role in the coolness of the country, as well as the precipitation. With the exception of the west coast of the country, all of Canada experiences winters with average below freezing temperatures and large amounts of snow. Forest regions are the most common in Canada. In fact, Canada is home to the northern coniferous forest, which is the second largest area of uninterrupted forest in the world, following Russia. This forest plays a key role in the wood and lumber industry for Canada. The largest wildlife region found in Canada is the Scotts Island Marine National Wildlife Area, which is home to over 40% of British Columbia's seabird population. Because of such a vast mix of landscape within Canada, half of the Canadian landscape is unpopulated. Since Canada is a well-developed country, the population is much older. The average age of a Canadian citizen is 41.4 years old as of 2018, and the average life expectancy is around 81.1 years. The 2021 Canadian census showed a population increase of around 5.2% compared to the 2016 census. The reasoning for this is immigration, as immigrants made up around two thirds of this growth. Canadian citizens are fairly healthy individuals, with 88% of all Canadians being reported having “great health”. Healthcare in Canada is publicly funded, meaning that it is free of charge for all citizens. Canada is not only considered a “full democracy”, but also a constitutional monarchy, with Queen Elizabeth II of Britain reigning over each of Canada’s 10 provinces. Currently, Justin Trudeau is serving as the country’s 23rd prime minister. Canada is made up of three regions, and ten provinces. These provinces are each in charge of their own social programs like education, health care, and welfare. Along with this, each province is in charge of their own administration of justice, but not criminal law.
