The one I'm most familiar with are oblique world maps like the Newsmaps from World War II (Target Tokyo in the David Rumsey map collection, scale along the bottom). Can't think of a specific non-world map for this however.CraigCraig HaggitSenior Catalog Librarian, Western History and Genealogy Dept.Denver Public Library720-865-1813Will anyone share examples of maps that depict variable scale across a single map? I have one - Baltimore by Horn-Shafer Co. and Baltimore Area Convention and Visitors Council 1967 (oclc 30570294)
But I know there are many European cities that depict scale in this way.
Cataloger's Desktop definition: A scale designation for a resource whose scale is variable across the resource, when the range of values cannot be determined.
Thanks in advance.
