Wew! Thanks to the persistence of Kay Guildner, the AGSL has added 9 new plates (3 maps worth) to our holdings. We acquired the Milwaukee plates in the 1980s and now add Bayview, Waukesha and Whitewater.
Here they are ... we're so excited!

USGS Copper Plates - an album on Flickr
The AGS Library has the 1:62,500 plates for Milwaukee that were acquired in the 1980s. Thanks to a recent effort by the USGS to put more plates into archives, we have acquired the Whitewater, Wis., Waukesha, Wis. and Bayview, Wis. plates. Hot off the press
- or should I say cold out of Kay's car ... here they are!

Thank you USGS!
