The desire for knowledge, like the thirst for riches,
​increases ever with the acquisition of it.

Chart of Knowledge -South America

4/12/2016

 
Behold the magnificent Chart of Knowledge! This is another one of my favorites. Can you guess why? It has a blimp, of course! I love the muted colors and overall design of this one. It's very charming. Everything you need to know about South America is here. What's the capital of French Guiana? Did you know one of the principal exports of Ecuador is Panama hats? This chart was produced in 1931, back when Quito had just 80,000 souls. Today, the current population of Quito proper is over 2,500,000.

This is not an uncommon type of wheel, as you will eventually discover if you check back here. We have a lot more covering continents and states. Wait till you see the one for Africa!

I wish I could work for Chart ofKnowledge Co. of America.
