A decorative, entertaining, and unusual pictorial map of Sardinia, issued as a supplement to an educational magazine distributed exclusively by subscription to school teachers. It depicts major cities alongside their most characteristic buildings, key transport routes, and the region's agricultural and industrial specialties. Printed via chromolithography on fine paper. Editrice La Scuola (founded in 1904) is a Brescia-based publishing house specializing in educational materials. Established by lawyers, intellectuals, and politicians, it was created to ensure the continuation of *Scuola Italiana Moderna*, a primary school magazine conceived in 1893 by Giuseppe Tovini. It has a history of collaboration with the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart—helping to establish a campus in Brescia—and, in recent decades, has also worked with the University of Brescia. It remains active today, publishing periodicals for children, magazines for teachers, and books on pedagogical topics. Shows traces of central folds.
