     Attention all mapsters in the northeast!
 
     Frank Manasek will speak on the paper used in mapmaking in a talk to
     the New York Map Society on this coming Saturday at 11 a.m. at the
     American Museum of Natural History, Room 319. The museum is at 81st
     and Central Park West.
 
     He will focus on 500 years of paper making and show slides of the
     microscopic structure of paper. Mr. Manasek is Managing Director of G.
     G. Manasek, Inc., a firm dealing in rare books and maps.  He is the
     author of Uncommon  Value: A rare book dealer's world; Under Cover:
     Death stalks the Book Dealer and also Collecting Old Maps: the map
     collector's vade-mecum.
 
     The above notice appeared in Rhumblines, the newsletter of the New
     York Map Society. For more information, call David Starr, President at
     212-929-4861 or Cathe Giffuni at 212-779-9540.
 
     Please join us! Folks in the northeast within commuting distance are
     most welcome to join us at the museum. Go to the 77th or Central Park
     West entrance, under the stairs, and ask for the NYMap Society
     meeting, in Room 319. Avoid the crowded front door entrance and
     stairs.  Entrance fee should be waived, as we pay a fee to use the
     meeting room.
