Hello,
 
I suscribed to this list about one month ago and I read some e-messages
with mention of 'sanborn map'; even one refered to 'fire map'. Nothing in
current English dictionaries, neither in map library (cartotheque) here, a
canadian french-speaking university. Is it a kind of map (about fires?)  or
a trade mark of map-maker? I seems so obvious for some US colleagues of the
list, that maybe there is available documentation, books or websites about
sanborn maps.
 
Thank You for instructive details.
