FYI --Louise Ratliff -----Original Message----- From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Tony Campbell Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2018 7:38 AM To: ISHMap-List <[log in to unmask]> Subject: [ISHMap-List] Thefts from Pittsburgh's Carnegie Library The Carnegie Library in Pittsburgh has just announced that 314 book and maps have been stolen. Although this was noticed about a year ago, it has only just been publicised. There is a 7-page PDF list, which I have not had time to trawl through, but the Map Room blog notes that it "includes maps by Hondius, Jefferys, Ogilby and Ortelius, as well as two copies of the Italian translation of Ptolemy’s /Geography/." https://www.abaa.org/images/newsletter_pdf/Pittsburgh_Thefts_List_F-295-17_Sheet1.pdf http://www.maproomblog.com/2018/04/314-rare-books-and-maps-stolen-from-carnegie-library-of-pittsburgh/ Tony Campbell _______________________________________________ ISHM mailing list [log in to unmask] http://lazarus.elte.hu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ishm
