Great way to pose this Jon! Mary is probably chuckling about this right now!
I'm sticking with "cataloger's judgement" since I don't have the answer about woodcuts either, lol!

I love you all.
I want to say that the stone is the original and the rubbing is a reproduction. But then I think: we don’t consider woodcuts to be reproductions of the wood blocks.
What would Mary do?

Exactly. And to add to the difficulty, I don't really know when my rubbing was made. So, can I copy catalog on LC's record? My map has many similarities in terms of marks but a few unique elements that ... make me think it was done at a different time than that held at LC. Yale has one too. It's the Yi ji tu and one other (I actually have two of them I'm trying to figure out).

Angie,
I cannot speak for how the catalogers will see this, but might it be hard to assert that it is one of a kind?

Hi have a map that is a rubbing from a stone. So, it's a one of a kind, hand done rubbing but a reproduction of a map on stone.
So is it a manuscript or is the rubbing method simply the printing process?
Help.
