Possibly the only sheet in the Military Survey Australia 1:50, 000 series. "A 'pilot' sheet (Mildura West 1:50, 000) was compiled in 1956, and proved a successful experiment for publications at the metric scale. ... This period also saw the introduction ... of the scribing technique in map drawing ; the Mildura West sheet was probably the first Australian map to be drawn in this way".
