I've obtained a number of maps of the 1940s-70s vintage and although I'd like to keep them, I don't have room for them at home. I only have a personal letter/A4 size scanner at home and was hoping to find a large format scanner to scan these maps in the New York City area (with reasonable costs) before trying to find somewhere to donate them. The two largest sizes I have roughly measure 22" x 30" and 25" x 38" Any suggestions on where to go? Thanks in advance, Joshua -- Joshua Davidowitz [log in to unmask] "My cello has been transported on mules, camels, trucks, rowboats, droshkie, bicycles, gondolas, jeeps, a submarine off Italy, subways, trams, sleds, junks, and on a stretcher in Amalfi. But by far the most racking experience of all is when, in full dress, I must transport the cello in my own hands across the stage each time I have to play." -Gregor ("Grisha") Piatigorsky
