-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Offer: Old CIA maps Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2004 09:57:33 -0400 From: Mark A. Thomas <[log in to unmask]> ------------------ We received a stack of old CIA page-sized maps dating from about 1968-1976. They are generally all of Middle East countries or regions. Many copies of each map, so I collated them into a bunch of sets of about 14 maps each. They look essentially the same as modern CIA page-size maps, although you'll see things like Egypt identified as UAR, Sinai as Israeli-occupied, etc. I will give one set to each requesting library (libraries only, please). Fine to ask for more than one set, and if I have any left (probable) then I'll them. I can send them for free to North America, but reserve the right to ask for postage reimbursement (e.g., send us postage stamps). We didn't have these editions in our collection, either because we had a policy back then of superseding them, or didn't select them, or they weren't in the GPO depository program at the time. They're mostly unmarked; a very few are 3-hole punched. If I get really a lot of requests, I will need to give the smaller sets (there were an uneven number of each map, so some sets have 13, then 12, then 11, etc. number of maps). --Mark ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mark Thomas / [log in to unmask] / 919-660-5853, fax:919-684-2855 Economics, Geology, Geography Bibliographer Map and GIS Librarian / Public Documents and Maps Department 025 Perkins Library / Duke University, Durham, NC 27708-0177
