The University of Chicago Map Collection has
put up two new Web pages with compilations of
scanned maps.

One focuses on Chicago maps from the 1860s,
1870s, and 1880s:

and the other on maps of late 19th- and early 20th-century
Latin American cities:

Comments are welcome--especially from anyone who can
help identify the two ca. 1871 maps of Chicago for which
we don't have a publisher!
