The Australia map design used on the following products is based on a historical map, mainly hand-drawn and should not be used for any definitive purpose.

Map Tag products are also sold at the Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne. Australia. Stall number J51 &  J52 Thursday and Friday only. 

Historical Significance

The historical map has timeless beauty and was originally drawn by hand in the 1960's using little more than a pen, ink and ruler, and revised by the Australian Government ‘s surveying and mapping agency using a variety of cartographic methods. Now printed in subdued colours and without advertising or tables, in folded form it opens and closes easily with a spine for bookshelf storage. In rolled form, it is supplied in a strong postal tube. Six copies of the map have been sold to the Australian Senate for framing. The map also shows the National Sea Highway 'NSH' between Victoria and Tasmania reflecting an intention in 1996 by both major political parties to link the nation reducing the cost of crossing by sea for people and vehicles. Peter was awarded the Australian Hotels Association  Tasmania  award for bringing a National Sea Highway to Tasmania.

  T-Shirt

  Hi Peter, It was lovely to chat with you the other day, As I said when I wore my Black T-shirt recently on vacation in Port Douglas, I was stopped by so many Traders, and visiting Tourists from Europe, USA, New Zealand... but also many Australians. I could have sold MY t-shirt, one hundred times over, and everyone was amazed with the fine detail. My next purchase will be a white one and also a sarong. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to meeting you again at The Melbourne '82 Club Ionians when you will be guest speaker.  SD Canterbury, Melbourne

  T-Shirt with matching G-String

  I last emailed you regarding trying to obtain your famous "T & G" set. Due to us not having a free trade agreement, I was unable too. However, what I did not know, is that when I sent the first email, my friend there in Tas.. had called you, and it was already on its way. I had the T on at the beach recently, and WOW! What a conversation starter! Who would have thought... and then when I said it had a matching G... hmmm, some conversation, I must tell you! Thanks to him, my friend, and you.... Melissa In Sunny Florida

TESTIMONIAL:

Chessocracy

A notated, quadruple sized chess board made of polyester size and rolled in a strong postal tube. 
A game of skill based on power and politics using the same rules as chess. Can be created by using two sets of chess men - not supplied but easily obtainable from games shops.

The same rules apply for chess apply.

All moves are the same as for the original chess pieces.

The game reflects the inter-relationships of power between the people and institutions in modern-day democratic politics.

Possibly and subject to the laws of the state in which the game is played, two sets of coins having six different denominations could be used in lieu of chess pieces, one side using heads the other tails.
