The Hobo-Dyer Projection World Map is another type of equal-area projection. This cylindrical projection is assumed to wrap around the globe cutting through at 37.5 degrees north and south. Shapes between latitudes 45 degrees north and south are well preserved, but land masses near the poles are flattened to preserve the equal area property. This comes only in a placemat version, laminated, that measures 17.5 x 11". One side features an Atlantic-centered map, the other has an "upside-down" pacific-centered world map!
