Subject: Antique Map Price Record on CD-ROM
Sender: Jeremy Pool <[log in to unmask]>



Volume 17 of the Antique Map Price Record (commonly known as "Jolly",
after its initial publisher) has just been published by MapRecord
Publications.  Unlike the previous 16 print volumes, starting with
volume 17 the Price Record is being published electronically, as a
CD-ROM for Windows (95, 98, 2000, NT or XP).

In addition to containing new data for volume 17, the CD-ROM contains all
the data from the previous 16 volumes.  It thereby provides a searchable
database of over 80,000 records of antiquarian maps listed by dealers or
sold at auction, spanning a period of nearly 20 years.

The historical data (from volumes 1-16) has been enriched by the addition
of more carto-bibliographical references, and the entire database has been
reviewed for increased accuracy and consistency in map titles.

With volume 17, the publication of the Antique Map Price Record has changed
hands.  Between 1983 and 1992 the compiler and publisher was David Jolly.
>From 1993 through 2001, the publisher was Jon Rosenthal (under the name
Kimmel Publications).  As of 2002, the publisher is Jeremy Pool (under the
name MapRecord Publications).

Information on the CD-ROM (ISBN 0-9720720-0-4), including purchase
information, can be found on the Web at http://www.MapRecord.com.
