A large wall map, one of Philips' series of comparative wall atlases, entitled 'Africa, Commercial Development'. It is colour-printed on linen-backed white paper which, when folded correctly, has blue cardboard covers at the front and back. The front has a white label printed in blue, which reads '5. Africa. - Commercial Development'. In each of the top corners is a large gold-coloured metal eyelet. The map is slightly dirty round the edges.
