Like some others in UK I seem to be conscious of G20, so fwd herewith a
posting originally sent to 'MapHist'.
The first map, as many will know, is Jodocus Hondius sr's 'Fool's Cap'
world map (Shirley no. . .) of 1595-ish; the colouring reminds me, as
again others, of the reduced facsimile (as a large post-card) issued by
Peter Whitfield of Wychwood Editions a couple of decades ago.

Subject: [MapHist] Old and new maps in G20 protest
List members may be interested in the use of an old and a new map on
promotional material issued by G20 protesters.
The link is to a PDF on their own website:
http://www.g-20meltdown.org/sites/g-20meltdown.org/files/money.pdf
I am sure someone will be able to identify the maps.
