"Hi Mel,
I know this was an old post of yours but I just read it. Hope the move is going OK. If I read you correctly, there are indexes for 1910 through 1914 (2 half years for 1914).
I have, what appear to be, loose addendums for all…"

Thanks for adding it so quickly. Here's a pic, not the greatest but until you get something better.

Mike Christie replied to George Thomas Wilson's discussion March 28, 1891 South America Map in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Thanks, Mel.
I've now added the South America map to the "All supplements" collection, though I don't have a picture of it -- if someone has uploaded a picture here somewhere, let me know. If there are other supplements I…"
Melvin L. De Vilbiss replied to George Thomas Wilson's discussion March 28, 1891 South America Map in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Mike,
If you look on page 8 of my personal supplement inventory (an inventory I have shared only with Mike in support of his efforts on the XYZ web site), you'll see the Vol. III, Number 1, Pl. 1 - Mar 28, 1891 map of "South…"
Mike Christie replied to George Thomas Wilson's discussion March 28, 1891 South America Map in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Thanks for spotting this -- I will be glad to add it. I'll wait and see if Melvin knows a reason why it might not be considered a supplement, but for the "All supplements" list it seems reasonable to add it.

March 28, 1891 South America Map
The Volume III Pages 1-30 issue of National Geographic dated March 28, 1891 contains a map of South America. It is listed as Vol. III Plate 1.It is a multicolored map showing borders very similar to the one published in August 1906 albeit smaller in size (11 3/4" by 9 3/4"). These borders are far from the established borders of today. One major difference between this map and the 1906 one is that Panama is still part of Colombia. That revolution, which allowed us to build the Panama Canal,…See More
George Thomas Wilson replied to Mike Christie's discussion New "all supplements" collection added at XYZcollectibles in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Thanks Mike (and Philip),
I transferred my info to the new collection. Since the old one is just a subset of the new. I'll just delete it.

George Thomas Wilson replied to Melvin L. De Vilbiss's discussion June 1905 Anomaly"Correct, Mel.
That was my typo."
George Thomas Wilson replied to Melvin L. De Vilbiss's discussion June 1905 Anomaly"Mel,
My June 1905 issue is an original and, as best I can tell, it is 16 13/16" by 9 7/8".

George Thomas Wilson replied to Melvin L. De Vilbiss's discussion May 1896 Anomaly"Mel,
Sorry I can't help. My only original 1896 issue is February. My April reprints have the black background versions so a second run for May after the ad was updated sounds plausible. Let me what you find out.
