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…"
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.

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.

New "all supplements" collection added at XYZcollectibles
With the help of Philip Riviere, I've added a new collection to XYZcollectibles (http://xyzcollectibles.com). I already had a "loose supplements" collection; Philip pointed out that this omits quite a few supplements that are included with most lists, such as Buxbaum and Nathan. I've now created a collection that includes all the loose supplements and also includes all the additional ones; I've called it "National Geographic - all supplements".If you're…See More

Mike Christie replied to Mike Christie's discussion September 2008 supplement in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"At the moment it doesn't sound like this qualifies, so I'm not going to add it to XYZ. Thanks for the information!"
Mike Christie replied to Melvin L. De Vilbiss's discussion Inventory list for Map Indexes in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Based on Mel's research, I've now created the map index collection on XYZ; it can be seen at this page. I'd be glad of any comments or corrections. Also, if anyone has copies of indexes for which we have no picture,…"
George Thomas Wilson replied to Mike Christie's discussion September 2008 supplement in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"That's absolutely correct, Mel. What I was describing was the pull out only, not the pocket it came in. The pocket has another title: "Just How Thirsty is Our Planet and Can it be Quenched?" and a bit more info…"
Melvin L. De Vilbiss replied to Mike Christie's discussion September 2008 supplement in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"No such supplement "by that name" exists for the year of 2008 - or any other year for that matter.
No supplement exists for that month of that year.
To eleborate more on what Mike described below:
The Dow advertisment is a bound…"
George Thomas Wilson replied to Mike Christie's discussion September 2008 supplement in the group Map and Supplement Collectors"Mike,
There does seem to be a Dow advertizement supplement from this issue with 2 world maps entitled "Signs & Solutions for a Thirsty Planet". I cannot find anything on "Incredible India" other than the fact that it is…"
Mike Christie added a discussion to the group Map and Supplement CollectorsSeptember 2008 supplement
Unless I'm missing it, Philip did not include a September 2008 supplement in his excellent photo albums of all supplements. However, I see ebay listings for what appears to be a supplement for that month, titled "Incredible India". If anyone has a copy, could they confirm that this is a supplement for that month? Thanks.

That's very helpful. (I would have replied to your message but for some reason I don't see a reply button on your message, so I'm replying to the one above.)
I would eventually like to add these, but I would guess far fewer…"

First, Tom, I don't currently include the Olympics supplement. I haven't deleted it - I went and looked for it when this discussion came up and…"
