This striking pictorial world map was issued as part of a promotion by the French chocolatier, Menier, in 1956. T he richly illustrated and colourful map traces a trip around the world to 120 locations by the companys mascot, Jacqueline. The small illustrations are of place-specific flora and fauna, native costumes, architecture, etc. The map contains three insets: Israel, India and the Belgian Congo.Customers collected (120) coupons that accompanied chocolate bars and affixed them to the respective spots on the grid below the map, then submitting the completed form to the Menier company for a premium or entry into a contest. As a result, the map is often seen with the lower panel missing.J.B. Jannot, who sometimes used the pen name Jan-Loup, was a French artist, illustrator and cartoonist. Jannot did a similar map of Europe (Grand Circuit des Capitales), also for Menier, at about the same time. Condition is excellent and several folds, as issued.Overall size approx 110cm x 75cm.
