Solar Forecasting Maps Boxed Set

IMG_8505

I gave in and bought this amazing box set of solar forecasting maps. Contained in two cases with 18 portfolios in each, they include reproductions of hand-drawn maps from 1957. Amazing attention to detail, superb printing quality, and overall just a beautiful (albeit heavy) object.

The overall print quality is incredible; both the red and black are very crisp.
