I'm looking for nice AT/PCT wall maps, art / posters for my home and prefer to purchase them from the trail conservancies, trail clubs, or LNT-oriented group. Didn't see anything on the ATC site. Any ideas where to source these things from?

I have mine mounted on some foam board.

This one was first printed in 1981 but is stil my favorite.

Edit---
I just read the description at the ATC store. Looks like they updated the classic 1981 map in 2014. That make this one definitely worth considering. Others may be "prettier" but this one make a statement.
I put a photo in the ocean area on my older version for a splash color. My dad labeled it with dates in real-time as I moved up the trail-- the black sharpie shows up well against the light background.
