Hello all,
All the maps have been claimed. You've been quick on the replies!
In answer to a couple of queries I've had. Yes, I realize these are collectors items. The ones that I have offered are items that do not fit in UC Davis libraries' collections. I have no way to sell the maps and use the profits for the benefit of our collection. I am trusting that those who have replied to my offer will add these maps to their collections so that these maps will be available for use by a wider audience than if they were in a private collection.
Thanks for giving them a good home.

Hello all,
I received a donation of old Shell (gasoline) Road Maps (states) and Street Maps (metropolitan areas). They are slightly musty smelling, but I believe they are OK. The following maps are available to any map library. No shipping reimbursement necessary.
