They can be written on with suitable marker pens without any damage to the map but, unless laminated on both sides, they are not damp-proof.- ENCAPSULATED wall maps are sealed between two sheets of plastic. They are more rigid & heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof & do not crinkle in humid conditions. Encapsulation gives the map a shiny surface, similar to being displayed behind glass.- PLEASE NOTE: many publishers & retailers often use these two terms interchangeably.

The definitive account of the pop cult capital of the UK by Dave Haslam, one of Manchester`s top DJs & journalists. Manchester, a predominantly working-class city, away from the nation`s capital, has been at the margins of English culture for centuries.
