Subject:        map authenticators in Champaign, Illinois?

The National Library of Australia has received a request from a woman in
Champaign, Illinois seeking information on anyone in her vicinity who
could authenticate/value a rare map she has purchased. The map appears
to be titled HAMISPHARI GRAPHICUM (perhaps she means "Haemisphaerivm
sceno graphicum"?)
Can anyone with knowledge of valuers/authenticators in Champaign please
contact her directly: Pamela Parrish [log in to unmask]

I have already suggested the Yellow Pages, and local antique dealers,
map libraries or museums.

Thank you!


Brendan
