According to http://www.copyright.org.au/g023.pdf "Artistic works"
where the government is the copyright holder lasts 50 years from the
year of making not when it was first published. So the printed maps
(but maybe not the handwritten amendments on top) should be in the
public domain.

Should I be asking legal-talk about if this is okay instead?
