Recycled Street Map Wallet - Central Eastern New South Wales

Where are you heading?

This handcrafted slimline wallet is made from the original pages of an Australian Road Atlas published by Penguin Books in 1995. The pages have been covered in clear PVC, folded and stitched by hand to protect the paper. A true limited edition collectable.

This wallet features Central Eastern New South Wales (page 20) across both sides — the flap shows Canberra (highlighted) and the surrounding region including Queanbeyan, Yass, Wagga Wagga, Tumut, Nowra, Bungendore, and Kosciuszko National Park. The body shows the broader Central Eastern NSW region including Dubbo, Wellington, Orange, Bathurst, Lithgow, Katoomba, Cowra, Parkes, Forbes, Mudgee, and Wollemi National Park. The inside is lined with an atlas index page listing Australian towns beginning with Na–No.

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.
