Map of Mars

Please can somebody say from whom a large scale wall mounting map of Mars
may be purchased in the UK. A friend of mine who is in poor health has been
trying for quite a while to get such a map.

Thanks in anticipation.

There's a name from my past - I used to do educational trade fairs all
over the UK and would occasionally run into Drake as a fellow
exhibitor - largely in west country and Wales.

Drakes had the stand next to mine in Glasgow - a bit out of their
(then) region. I asked what they were doing in Scotland. We're here
for a bath - was the immediate reply. This was Autumn 1976.
