Dan,
 
Your request rings a bell with me. In fact, I'm willing to bet the OCLC
records you found came from me (UPM in the 040?). I did something like 10 -
12 titles in that series. One of them matched the list you have, "Colonial
powers, 1783", but the series numbering was "K.W. 14". I had the same
problem, I guessed at the age of the maps since there was absolutely
nothing on any of them to indicate when they were created or published.
Looking at the series title in our system I pulled up three titles, they
were K.W. 13, K.W. 14 (the Colonial one mentioned above), and K.W. 15. I'm
sure I did others, perhaps the series name changed, but I didn't find them
on a quick search of our system. Anyway, bottom line is you may have to
guess at a date based on the condition of the map, or maybe you (or
somebody out there on MAPS-L) can find an old company catalog listing these
titles and when they were published?
