Travel Poster Brisbane City Suburbs Australia Map
Original vintage folded map of Brisbane city, Australia and its suburbs, as No. 77 of the series 'Gregory's Road Map', and officially recognised by the Royal Automobile Club of Queensland. Brisbane River can be seen - it is the longest river in South-East Queensland, Australia, and flows through the city of Brisbane, before emptying into Moreton Bay on the Coral Sea. John Oxley, the first European to explore the river, named it after the Governor of New South Wales, Sir Thomas Brisbane in 1823. The penal colony of Moreton Bay later adopted the same name, eventually becoming the present city of Brisbane. Good condition, minor tears at folds, minor foxing mainly on cover page. Country of issue: Australia, designer: Clive Barrass, size (cm): 49.5x75, year of printing: 1950s
