'''Historical Character World Maps''' are illustrated, full color maps with marked important locations of a [[Historical Character]]'s [[Central Series]] near their homes. Maps were released for [[Felicity Merriman]], [[Josefina Montoya]], [[Kirsten Larson]], [[Addy Walker]], [[Samantha Parkington]], and [[Molly McIntire]].<br />
<br />
They were released in '''1995''' (with Josefina's released in ''1997'' at her release) and all later [[Retirement|retired]].<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
<br />
The maps are illustrated in full color at a size of 31.5" by 21.25" with the character portrait at the top. A guide to locations, as well as a map of the US at the character's era, the US Flag at the time<ref>Felicity's has the British flag; Josefina's has the Mexican Flag.</ref> and a black dot showing the location of the character's setting, are in a separate box. Locations both real and fictional are listed and numbered. Real-life locations are listed in black text, with fictional locations in the series in colored text according to each character (i.e. Addy's fictional locations are printed in dark orange). Select locations had their interiors illustrated in larger close ups imposed over art of the main map.<ref>Samantha's map, as it is based on Mount Kisco, NY, has real locations mentioned; Molly's locations and town are all stated to be fictional.</ref> <br />
<br />
The maps came with a trifold guide, ''Stepping Into Name's World'', which showed users how to use the map grid lines and offered questions for finding images along the map. Often, a close up of a location detail of note was in the guide. Answers to the questions were on the back. These guides measured 8.5" x 14" when folded out completely. <br />
<br />
Maps were sold separately and often came folded into six sections. They were also offered free (minus the guide) with purchase of any two character [[Central Series]] or [[Portfolios of Pastimes]] books in March 1996 or while supplies lasted. <br />
<br />
==Other Versions==<br />
<br />
Versions of the maps came in the back of the [[American Girl Teacher's Guides]] as a pull out. [[Scenes and Settings]] had the full map printed on the back, and smaller maps were printed on the back of the informational booklets that came with them. <br />
