By H.E.C. Robinson, Australia’s Master Cartographer
This beautifully restored 1952 Road Map of Tasmania, originally published by H.E.C. Robinson, is a superb vintage portrayal of the island’s post-war road and transport network. Known for his clarity and elegance in cartographic design, Robinson presents an easy-to-read, highly detailed map that captures the essence of Tasmania—its towns, terrain, and transport routes—at a key moment in the state’s modern development.
Nicknamed the “Apple Isle”, Tasmania is shown here in crisp relief, with a focus on its roadways, railway lines, scenic reserves, and ferry links. A series of inset maps adds further depth, including detailed layouts of Hobart City, Hobart Surrounds, Launceston Surrounds, and King Island.
