This sounds like a wonderful map for any teaching set of examples of the good the bad and the just-plain-curious in cartography; and I suspect that quite a few people might be interested in getting hold of copies. Just a thought but, given the publication date (1920s) it is presumably way past any copyright cut-off dates. Would there be any chance of some nice charitable and generous person out there scanning a copy of this map and putting it on the Web and/or an ftp site, in TIFF, GIF or any other suitable format for us in distant lands to download if so inclined? Possibly not, but I thought I would ask anyway.... Darius Bartlett
