Map Description
Old map of Bolivia.
19th century--early 20th century, as the extension of the rail line to Oruro made possible the export of large amounts of ore to Europe. By 1912, the year this map was made, 115 tin mines were operating in Bolivia, annually producing more than 38,000 metric tons of ore. The heavily forested parts of the country east of the mountains are identified as rubber-producing regions, while cattle production is concentrated in the lowlands near the border with Brazil. Completed and proposed railroads are indicated, including the lines running south from the capital city of La Paz to the Chilean Pacific ports of Arica and Antofagasta.

Map Sizing Information
- For the best legibility, order your map in the original size or larger. Most maps have intricate detail and small text that is best appreciated when the print size hasn't been reduced.
- Sizes labeled "Fits a Standard Frame" will drop right into any frame that you purchase in that size. The sizes that we offer are commonly available online and at most retail stores.
- Our standard sizes are recommendations based on the aspect ratio of the original map, but still may require some added "white space" in one dimension to fit.
- Non-standard sizes will require custom framing, and we suggest taking your print to the frame shop of your choice after you receive it for the best results.
- Custom sizes are available, simply contact us for a quote.
Below is an approximation of the scale of a few standard sizes, and how they might appear in your space.
