Hi, Alice,
 
This discussion of the Sanborn plans is very interesting to me at this
time, as I am trying to write an introduction to a new to our collection.
No libraries in this area has Biblion. Could you please provide a more
detailed reference so I could try to get a copy of this article? Many thanks.
 
I wonder if anyone has managed to get at the Map Collection in California
State University, Northridge yet. I believe that is the largest collection
of Sanborn plans in the western US. Weren't a lot of the pre-1906 plans
lost in the San Francisco quake? This Northridge quake managed to take all
Richter's papers with it!
 
They keep telling us we are due for a 8.5 anytime in the next 100 years!
