Presentation Dr Kenneth Field
The Beautiful Game: A World of Football

An attractive, colourful and eye-catching poster illustrating the comparative size and composition of the national football associations of the world, the amount of information on this map is huge and is clearly suitable to be shown as submitted, as a poster. The design is highly innovative and has resulted in a beautifully designed product, which fulfils its brief in every area.

Dr Kenneth Field is presented with the award from Jim Irvine.

HIGHLY COMMENDED

Robert Pratt of National Geographic Society
Shipwrecks of Delmarva

An incredibly detailed map depicting the locations of shipwrecks around this peninsula on the east coast of the US. Although much of the map is taken up by the listing of ships it is clearly presented and interspersed with some interesting illustrations making it a most informative and fascinating product.
