Michelin has decided to extend its mapping to include a road map of the
Czech and Slovak republics #976 at scale 1:600,000 it is fully indexed and
dated 1996.
Michelin 1996 catalogues both French language and English do not describe
the other new map for 1996 Hungary #425 also at 1:400,000 indexed and dated
1996.
In the 1:200,000 scale Michelin has prepared a new Map # 211 Rotterdam /
Appledorn / Maastricht covering the southern part of The Netherlands.
New edition atlases Spain / Portugal spiral version (English) and Italy
spiral (English) are announced for 1996.
USA Recreational map, folded, paper rolled or laminated is now available in
English. It is a USA map at 1:3,850,000 with attached booklet. Covers 500
parks, monuments, historic and recreational sites of the national park
system, as well as favorite amusement and theme parks. Comprehensive site
listing and index of more than 4,750 cities and towns. Interstate and major
highways with driving distances in miles and kilometers.
These are the only new country maps and atlases announced to be published by
Michelin for 1996.
There are several new Michelin Green Guides for various areas, San
Francisco, Florida, Chicago, Brussels, Europe, Scandinavia / Finland,
Tuscany, Venice, Wales and a new French regional guide previously only
available in French language version Pyrenees-Languedoc / Tarn Gorges.
Michelin also appears to have embarked on a joint venture with Cartographia
the Budapest, Hungary based mapping company (hence the Michelin Hungary map
# 425 perhaps). Michelin is now distributing the Cartographia country and
city maps some of which are quite good and alternatives difficult to find;
Tokyo for example.
Now for the bad news. Significant price increases have been announced.
If we can provide any of these maps or publications for you please contact
me for more information.
