I researcher would like to either borrow a hard copy or obtain a high
quality scan of a map reproduced in poor quality in JSTOR. It is for use
in GIS. There are also data tables on the reverse side and he would also
like a copy of those since evidently they were not included in JSTOR.

There are several OCLC records for this map.  Here is the one with the
most holdings:

Please let me know off list if you are able to assist.

Also, please inform me if you know of any earlier population maps of
East Africa, specifically Uganda  (we are aware of the 1948 East Africa
map at Library of Congress and Uganda ones listed with single library
holdings in WorldCat from 1972, 1935/6, and 1969).  He is interested in
any maps from 1911 -2002.

Thanks,
