May Curator's Choice

Published a year after the Gallipoli landings for the home front audience, this map shows the landing sites and positions reached by the ANZAC troops during the eight month campaign of 1915. Profits from the one shilling map were to be handed to War Funds. It shows the difficult terrain, as the ground climbs over 200 metres within just 1 kilometre from the beach.
