And Research at the University of South Australia is named after him. Unaipon Avenue in the Canberra suburb of Ngunnawal is named after him. In 1985 he was posthumously awarded the Fellowship of Australian Writers' FAW Patricia Weickhardt Award to an Aboriginal Writer. The annual Unaipon lecture in Adelaide was established in 1988. Also in 1988, the national David Unaipon Award for Aboriginal Writers was established. Fifty-dollar note Allan "Chirpy" Campbell, reported to be a great-nephew of David Unaipon, failed in an attempt to negotiate a settlement with the Reserve Bank of Australia for using an image of Unaipon on the Australian $50 note without the permission of the family. Campbell's argument was that the woman (who had since died) originally consulted by the Reserve Bank was not related to Mr Unaipon. Campbell was seeking million in compensation, plus ten years legal fees, plus a number of non-monetary items. The request for compensation was turned down. Campbell later claimed compensation from eBay, which used images of the Australian notes in an advertising campaign.
