Dear Dennis,
 
I send in attachment a “cartographic sketch of coalfields of Belgium and neighboring areas”. This map is an excerpt of a plate entitled “Stratigraphic scales of coal deposits of Belgium and neighboring areas”. This plate has been published in 1954 with the book “Prodrome d’une description geologique de la Belgique”. You will find all bibliographic details (with accentuated characters) in the attached file.
 
I can send you the whole plate with the explanatory note (in French) but the quality of the scanned plate is not very good.
 
If you patron would like to have more detailed maps, please let me know.
 
Yours sincerely,
 
Annick

All,
 
I have a patron researching coalfields in Great Britain, France, Belgium and the Netherlands from the early 19th century through mid 20th and he would like some maps to include in his report.  I don’t have anything in my collection but found these two maps online:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:British.coalfields.19th.century.jpg and http://etc.usf.edu/maps/pages/7200/7264/7264z.htm.  Also looking through David Rumsey in the meantime.  Wondering if anyone has maps for those areas scanned for their collection or print maps where I could get scanned copies?
 
Thanks,
 
Dennis
