Continuing with this week's theme of props related to Lovecraft's "The Shadow Out of Time", a vintage map of Australia and it's environs. This was scanned from my beloved 1922 edition of "Winston's Cumulative Loose-Leaf Encyclopedia". Just click through to download the high resolution version from Picasa. Tomorrow I'll have the complete Australia article from the set.
