Did you see my post about “How do you plan your collection?”
This one ticks all the boxes!
Certainly, when it comes to you :)
Which one is it that strikes your fancy best? The original Heritage Spirit Orbis Terrarum from your shot, the larger 4810 collection coloured continent one or one of the UNICEF ones?
