Hello Linda,

I’m sorry for the late answer on this – I was away last week.

This Bartholomew ‘Central Europe’ map you have was published in 1963. The Bartholomew Archive Job Register records that work began on this map on 14 Nov 1962, and 15,000 copies of this map were printed by 18 Feb 1963.

I hope that helps.

Chris

The Bartholomew Archive at the National Library of Scotland may be able to help you. Chris Fleet there has been very helpful to me when I've done Bartholomew's related research.

Hello,

I have a Bartholomew map with the title Central Europe. SInce it has been removed from the covers, I have no way to assign a date. It is before 1991, but could be from any time between the late 60s to 1991. The only clue that I have is a number in the lower left corner: 2289.

I would appreciate it if those of you who have the Central Europe Bartholomew map could check the maps in your collections to help me date our map. Thank you. Linda Zellmer
