"Thanks for the offer of Oct. 1908. But I found a nice copy for $25. Now I just need Jan. 1908. There are two out there with cover detached or missing for $35. Ridiculous! Interesting you are in Las Vegas, since that's the city I grew up in. I…"

"I have a checklist that goes up to 2017 and there are 497 maps, supplements and pictorials listed. So one large box should be sufficient. Did your dad collect multiple copies? Maybe those boxes have something else in them?"

No, I'm sorry I don't know Ross Englehart. Nice picture of your collection. It is a labor of love, isn't it? Mel

My oldest is Vol 1, No. 3, July 1889. I'm missing about 100 of the oldest magazines; my loose issue collection is complete from Jan 1905 to present. My bound collection is complete from 1900 through 1995, though my 1902 bound volume is missing both maps (January issue) and I also have the complete bound Volume III. I have spoken with a couple of guys who both have a complete collection, and one other fella here in Maryland missing only three of four magazines - something I'll most likely never attain, but it doesn't hurt to dream!

Here's Another Old Comment page! I see we've talked before!

I'm happy to give away my duplicates to someone that is still collecting. I'm not sure there's that many left now that there is free access on the web.

Thanks Keith.  I love studying maps and learning about history, so I am enjoying copying these old maps.  I'm glad you like them too.  You have an impressive collection. I too have collected the supplement maps back as far as I can but only to c1913.  Like you, I am having the others printed.  What company do you use; maptrove.com, art.com, or maps.com perhaps?  Or do you make a jpg and send it to Walgreens?  Happy collecting!  Bill
