Aloha all,

I believe the original question from Edith was for a count of all
editions. The WAML list, I understand, counts only individual titles. Of
course many 7.5' quads have undergone more than one full revision over
time as well as the purple photorevision editions. Same for some
1:250,000 sheets as well. I understand LCG&M tries to keep a copy of all
these various editions and perhaps they can provide a sheet count which
I think would be significantly higher.
