Roger,
If the map is not a manuscript, many libraries may hold a copy. They
might be willing to make a scan and let you use the image. Out of
Copyright materials held in the Geography & Map Division of the Library of
Congress can be scanned if a Photoduplication order is placed. You will
need to pay for the scanning and details on that are available at:
http://www.loc.gov/preserv/pds/digital.html
The resulting image is yours do with as you please. I am sure other
libraries also offer similiar services.
