Subject: Re: Storage Boxes for Topos (fwd)
 
A question before you move and store the superseded quadrangles.  Does
your public never have need for the information on the older sheets?  I
learned long ago that having superseded sheets alongside the current can
show a visual representation of growth and develpment (or lack of it) of
an area.  The practice I've known of is to keep older editions with the
current sheet.
