James Reid took this pic at the Hanging Bat Pub on Edinburgh. What’s not to like about a map of beer?

Reinder shared this glasses cleaning cloth which can also be used to find your way around Amsterdam

Stefan Freelan also sent us this pic of a futuristic globe sculpture on a traffic island in Safed, Israel. Seems there are quite a few Maps in the Wild that I have missed on my travels there, will have to try harder.

Reinder pointed out that this bottle of Talisker Whisky has a label shaped like the coast of the Isle of Skye showing the location of the distillery. It also has a stopper with a map of the whole island. I can confirm that this is a fine single malt.

In the Old City of Jerusalem I spotted this mirror shaped like the borders of Israel outside a small jewellery shop called, The Coral Beach. They invited you to take a selfie, I couldn’t resist

This is the last one in the big batch from Elizabeth’s Indian trip. It’s a big view of the Ganges

Reinder shared this. Dutch author Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer (b. 1968) wrote a new and quite voluminous book on the classical Greek politician Alkibiades. One of the best bookshops of Amsterdam, Athenaeum Booksellers, decorated the window for the occasion with an appropriate map of Greece in antiquity.  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcibiades The book comes […]

Stefan Freeman sent us a pic of a hand holding a globe in Bet She’an, Israel. I happened to be there during this trip to Israel so I managed to get some extra pics and also see if I can find out if there was a back story to this […]

Erik is on a roll, he spotted this mappy shirt at a concert in Amsterdam

Did you know that for over 100 years until 2003 an underground railway network transported mail and parcels between London sporting offices? We took a ride on the Mail Rail and I spotted this map of its route. For more info see https://www.postalmuseum.org/collections/story-of-mail-rail/

Ian Wagner shared this, apparently it is “Near 부선역” I am taking a guess that that is South Korea but apologise if I have got that wrong!

Marc Tobias had sent me a pic of his thermal world mail mug and I had to have one. So when we meet for lunch after the April Geomob he brought me one. When the mug is cold, the map is all black. But when you fill it with a […]

Doug shared this pic taken in his room at Home2 Suites in Philadelphia. Nice mappy background.

I met Helen at Geomob London in April. I asked her if I could take a pic of her Mappy scarf and she countered that we had just been at an event with over 100 Map lovers so there must be lots of Mappy items but there weren’t. Thanks to […]

Another beauty from Robert Graham I found this bench with a map on it along the sea wall in Galveston, TX , USA
