CREATORS OF TACTILE MAPS AND DRAWINGS FOR THE BLIND
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Maps and drawings are created
by hand in metal foil, then duplicated by the Ther
moform
process to make clear, sharp copies. The 11x11-1/2 inch plastic sheets are bound
into volumes with cardboard covers and a spiral plastic binder.
Generally, key letters are used to label cities and areas on the maps. These key letters are identified on key pages preceding
each map. The maps sometimes have foldout sections and or appear on facing pages.
The
maps are detailed, and some experience with tactile drawings is recommended.
When examining
the drawings, place a piece of cardboard under each page to eliminate any texture from the page below.
To keep the drawings in good condition, please keep them out of the heat. Store them upright in the shipping boxes or so that
they are not squeezed together.
