I am missing about 45 maps in my Nat Geo map collection and would be interested to hear if anyone happens to have one or more in that list (I am looking for originals, not reprints). I doubt I find any of the older maps, but there are a few in the 1920's and some recent ones...

Chris, I have extra of Dec 2015, Sept 2013, and June 2013, for cost of shipping only, if you want.
Hi Scott,
Thanks for the offer, where are you located? I am in Sydney/Australia ... happy to pay for shipping if you let me know how much it is.
Regards
Chris
Add me as a friend here, and send me a private message. We'll discuss it.
Chris,
I may have some "older" extras but be forewarned - they are expensive.
The Jan 1902 maps often sell between $1500 to $2000 as they are the rarest in the NG collection. Yes, if you wait, sometimes the right moment will arrive and you'll catch a break. I have a good friend here on the forum who got the entire year of 1902 in good condition for about that price. It's all in the timing.
The April 1898 map is second coming in at between $800 to $1,000.
The 1880 through 1893 maps were bound within the publication so you'll rarely find them separate/loose, but as above, it's all in the timing. I have seen some of them loose - but only once or twice.
Good luck!
Mel
Should read "1889" not 1880.
Hi Mel, I am not surprised, I don't really expect to find them, let alone at a price I am prepared to pay :-)
Hello Chris,
I just saw this post. I have the May 1916 issue and map if you're still interested - please let me know!
Thanks,
Kevin
