`W>   What a marvelous idea!!!  I bought a bunch of National Geographics (old
  >ones) that were suposed to have "Map Supplements" thinking that I'd get 
some
  >decent sized wall maps for our own Geography study.  Boy, was THAT a 
mistake
  >The maps are only the size of a single page, and not very well done.  
Sigh..
  >They are SO expensive in the learning stores though!!!
Have you tried looking at thrift stores?  I've been in a couple stor
es that have maps in a shoe box.  They're no more than 50 cents each!
When we were getting National Geographic we saved all the old maps.
After several years I got rid of them.   We never looked at
them after the first time.  (Of course, this was pre-children days.)
I gave them to my SIL, who is a 4th grade teacher.  She snapped them up
and still uses them in school.
(I purchased our large wall map at Costco about 2 years ago for about 10
dollars.  US on one side, world on opposite. Good investment!)
