Jay,
What a great idea! Best Map Category. I would hope we would then all become members of the Academy to be able to vote.
Best,
Julie

Subject: McMaster's collection map used in 1917 movie - Gord Beck in the CBC
Forwarded from the Carta-L list.
Happy Saturday, everyone.
If you've not already come across it, I thought you might enjoy seeing Gord Beck in
this CBC news story, discussing the WWI trench map from McMaster's collection that was used in the movie 1917. We're currently lobbying the Academy to introduce a 'best map' category.
Have a nice weekend,
Jay
