Asia - Luzon, Theatre of Military Operations (1899) (Map) STICKER Vinyl Kiss-Cut Decal

This striking vinyl decal presents a detailed historical map, a visual record of the "Theatre of Military Operations" on the island of Luzon, Philippines, meticulously crafted in 1899 by the United States War Department's Military Information Division.

Design Elements

The artwork faithfully reproduces the original map's key elements. The design prominently features the geographical layout of Luzon, with intricate details defining major towns, provincial boundaries, and coastal features. The topography is rendered with spot-heights and hachures, providing a sense of the island's terrain.

A significant visual aspect of the design highlights the transport infrastructure of the time. Railroads and roads snake across the landscape, vital lines of communication and supply, as well as telegraph lines that crisscross the land. These features are presented in a manner that allows us to imagine the strategic importance that they played at the time.

Meaning and Symbolism

The map itself is a historical artifact that symbolizes a pivotal moment in the history of the Philippines and the United States. It represents the beginning of American involvement, a snapshot of the island at the turn of the 20th century, before full annexation and the evolution of political boundaries.

It is a stark reminder of the Philippine-American War and the strategic planning of the U.S. military. The map's details of troop movements, engagements, and geographic features offer insight into the context of conflict during a time of both war and colonization.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
