Recycled Street Map Wallet - Adelaide and Southern Suburbs

Carry a piece of Adelaide's history in your pocket. This one-of-a-kind wallet is handcrafted from the original pages of a 1990s Explore Australia Complete Touring Companion — a beloved road atlas that once guided travellers across the country. Each page has been carefully covered in clear PVC and stitched together to preserve the paper, creating a wallet that's as durable as it is distinctive.

What's on this wallet?
This edition features Adelaide's central suburbs and the stunning beachside corridor — from Tennyson down to Kingston Park, stretching inland to Bellevue Heights and Sefton Park. You'll spot Adelaide Airport, the iconic Glenelg foreshore, and a web of familiar streets that locals will instantly recognise. The interior is lined with an index page listing Australian towns and suburbs — a little treasure trove of nostalgia every time you open it (note that each wallet may vary to the index page pictured).

Perfect for:

• Travel documents, cards, and cash
• Smartphones, glasses, or face masks
• A truly unique gift for Adelaide lovers, map enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates handmade Australian design

Details:

• Size: approximately 18.5 cm wide × 10 cm high (folded)
• Closes with a magnetic snap
• One-of-a-kind — no two wallets are identical
• A true limited edition collectable
• Designed and sewn in Queensland, Australia

Like all well-loved maps, the paper will develop gentle creases with use — each one a mark of the journey.

No two designs are the same!

I love to collect vintage and retro books, magazines and other special documents such as sheet music and street directories to create a unique collection of wallets.

When designing a wallet, I select and cut out the pages (one for the outside and one for the lining) and cover them with clear PVC to have a waterproof protection.

From there I carefully stitch together the pages and fold them over to create your wallet, adding a Lyssy May label in the process to ensure its handmade story is shared.
