Dymaxion.Raleigh.Edition Postcards - 4x6-25pack

R. Buckminster Fuller

This Raleigh Edition of the Dymaxion map, first designed in Raleigh, North Carolina, is a vivid color reproduction of the original rendition created by R. Buckminster Fuller in 1954 in his office there. We have reproduced the map exactly as it was first conceived and produced by its creator. Both the land masses and the grayscale shading in the oceans represent mean low annual temperatures. The visionary Fuller designed this map to help us recognize that 'we're all astronauts aboard a little spaceship called Earth'; Because it can be reconfigured into a variety of patterns, it also communicated the point that there are many ways to see the world.
