Going through some batches of where I found what looks like blueline maps from the USGS .  They are blue lines with no additional data 100,000 scale maps...it is literally just the geography with a few place names on what looks like newsprint paper.

Do maps collections keep such maps?  How useful are they?

Any help you can give me would be most appreciated.
