Sea Charts Boxed Correspondence Set

For modern-day travelers, finding their way in any big city like Tokyo basically means checking their phone GPS but for sailors, navigation remains to a great extent something done with paper maps known as sea charts. The reason? First of all, these charts keep on working even after a ship's electrical systems have malfunctioned and second of all, they contain all kinds of information like water depths, shoreline delineations, shipping lanes, and sea currents that are crucial to safe navigation. Since this information needs to be updated continuously, the question is what to do with the old maps and one answer is to turn them into the Sea Charts Boxed Correspondence Set!

With the Sea Charts Boxed Correspondence Set, you can rediscover the fun of writing letters by hand. If you're having some special event like a wedding reception of a party, this will make it even more memorable. The set contains 80 A5-sized sheets of paper, 40 envelopes measuring 162 x 114mm (6.4 x 4.4"), and 40 stickers for writing your name and address and that of the recipient. Everything, including even the box that contains the set, is made from decommissioned Japanese sea charts, each from different charts so no two are alike!
