I have a patron looking for a street map of Havana Cuba before the
revolution (pre-1958), specifically the township of La Lisa. Any
suggestions?

This is what I have found so far:

I found a book entitled Cool Maps of Cuba. I am not sure if would have
street maps, but it may be helpful. We do not have it at MU, but you can
request it through MOBIUS, http://mobius.missouri.edu/record=b25445918~S0 .

Here is a Cuban atlas from 1949.

There is a chance there may be maps in the CIA research reports : Latin
America, 1946-1976 guide

Here is an antique map of Havana from 1901.

Here is a map from the 1950s but it is pretty illegible. You may be able
to contact the owner.

These also may be useful. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/cuba.html

Thanks in advance!
