My engineer husband struggled to put this map up....portions were cut crooked, no paste was included, it came in a cardboard tube with few instructions and no accessories. After hours of trying, I finally called the company who makes the map, Environmental Graphics, to explain my frustrations. Apparently the map I received was probably returned an re-sold, or the company we purchased from was doing something sketchy. They offered to send me a new map out and this one came in a nice box, with all the accessories (pen, seam glue, paste, etc) and none of the pieces were cut yet. HMmmmm. I would think maybe this was a mistake except that the company who originally sent the map gave us instructions saying the Glue was already on the poster and we just had to re-wet it! (Environmental Graphics said that is never the case). Bottom line, if you want this map seek another supplier or call EG directly.
