Brendan:

We can, if you wish, photocopy and post you a MODMAP (UK Ministry of
Defence-produced) 'unclassified' index at 1:6 500 scale entitled 'Coverage
by Generalkarte von Mitteleuropa 1:200 000 (Austrian series)'.  It is based
on the Greenwich meridian degree values but has the Austrian (Ferro) numbers
added along top & bottom borders.  Each sheet has its original
Austro-Hungarian number and title (thus: 'Rom 3042'; 'Thorn 3653'; 'Saloniki
4141') plus what may be the date of the most recent edition or printing
(e.g. 1943; 1932; 1966 for the three sheets just cited).

Does anyone have a (clean) index they can email/post me for the 1:200,000
Generalkarte von Mitteleuropa map series produced by the Austrians from the
1890s on the Ferro meridian  (and by the German military in ww2 on the
Greenwich meridian)?
