Subject: Re: [MAPS-L] Index for WW1-era Romania 100k series?



Brendan (et al.):



Have you not yet tried the RGS-IBG's OPAC - indeed, the 'new look' version?
Try the press-mark Romania G.38 (or unique Control No.: 528780): the
metadata offers one a clickable link to the ('zoomifiable') original
Romanian index map, considerably 'cleaned up' from our original marked-off
copy. This 1:100K series (Bucharest : Mil. Geogr. Inst., 1906-13) has the
alphanumeric sheet-numbering system such as you cite as an example. If this
is not the 1:100K series you seek try the next chronological series from
1922 onwards (the German WW2 Mil Geo series, as one can see, is also on the
Society's OPAC).



PS: Sorry, but not yet solved your Bulgaria problem of a few months back.

Subject: Index for WW1-era Romania 100k series?



I am seeking an index for 1:100,000 romanian mapping of Romania, c.1912
through WW1.



The series has no particular title, but sheet numbering seems to be of the
format "Seria IV, Coloana B" (row 4, column 2?) There are no coords on the
map, but each sheet is square and covers c.40x40 km



Any help appreciated!
