-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [carto-soc] Serial Map Service WW2 map duplicates Date: Fri, 28 Sep 2012 02:23:59 +0000 From: Brendan Whyte <[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: [log in to unmask] To: AMC <[log in to unmask]>, mapsL <[log in to unmask]>, Carto-soc <[log in to unmask]> Also to offer: "Serial Map Service" (from March 1946: "Serial Maps") Near-complete run of maps from #1 to #397. No commentaries. Serial Map Service was a British monthly serial Sept 1939- 1948, which published each month 4-5 colour thematic maps, and an 8-10 page set of essays about them. There were 450 maps in total over the 102 issues. The maps covered military manouevers during the war, but also general economic/strategic/cultural/thematic topics about all countries of the world. This 2-inch pile of maps (rougly A4 in size, some larger and folded down) has suffered damage in storage over the years, but is useful for filling gaps in a partial set if you have one, or many of the maps would be individually salvagable.
