Alice:



Sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday (Wednesday).



Indeed, Vol.8 no.2 was the final issue of 'Mercator's World' (from
evidence of copies in Library here, at home, and from my indexing
articles from it for the 'Imago Mundi Bibliography'); it included the
obituary of Gary Turley.



And now, onwards and upwards, with the hard copy 'MapForum' (are you
'Forum' or Against'um? [New Year's joke © Francis Herbert Productions]).

Was the last issue, vol. 8, no. 2??



None of the cataloging on OCLC is updated to state this, including our

own...I have the sneakiest feeling there is a vol. 8, no. 3 out there,

but

maybe I am confusing the month with the issue number.



Anyone have a clear sense of this?
