Does anyone know if it is still possible to purchase facsimile maps which
have this note in the lower right corner:  "From an original in the Map
Collection of Roy Wenzlick & Co. - St. Louis, MO"?  We HAD one of
<underline>THE NEW WORLD as drawn in 1587 by Abraham
Ortelius</underline>, (RLIN ID# MAHGAWMO1277-M), until about an hour ago
when a borrower returned it nearly ripped in half.


I searched a bit on the internet but found a listing only for old
Wenzlick Company real estate records in St. Louis.


Assuming that this specific reproduction we HAD is probably no longer
available anywhere, will some of you who are experienced in selecting
facsimile maps to purchase for academic map collections kindly share with
us some good sources to contact?  Thank you very much!
