ABSTRACT:
The present invention involves a map board assembly having one or more weather resistant sleeves. The sleeves are formed of a non-porous, transparent flexible material. Maps and other paper documents may be releasably secured to rigid, planar backing members and subsequently inserted into the sleeves. The maps may then be viewed through the transparent sleeve. Erasable markings may be placed on both the sleeves and rigid backing members due to their non-porous nature. The openings to the sleeves may be closed by the use of velcro strips. In map board assemblies having multiple sleeves, velcro strips or other suitable fastening devices may also be used to secure the individual sleeves together in a folded position. A flexible, non-porous, transparent overlay may be placed over a map displayed within a sleeve and have erasable markings placed thereon. The marked upon overlay may then be transferred to a different sleeve to thereby transfer or analyze the information conveyed by the markings. The overlay may be attached to the sleeves by the use of cooperating velcro strips.
