They sure are! The color may have escaped this vintage 16mm Coronet print but not the FUN! Back in the days when Cartography was a rough-and-tumble adventureland of daily excitement to be savored at any desired scale you choose. I easily would have been a map maker back in the day... and with all this fun they're having, wouldn't you??? Enjoy!

    Yepper! I colored countries different colors to make it easier to see. It was gosh darn fun. And I still get hungry thinking of coloring the country that had that name. Read it and hear the narrator's voice!

    I used to like drawing maps in the elementary school, as well as reading maps that were around, analyzing streets, rivers and so on. Especially water fascinated me, and I sometimes went for a walk with my father down the whatever little river was around.

    My friend Aileen is fascinated with maps, geography and travelling, and she still likes drawing maps by hand.
