As I'm sure many of you know, the _Geologic Atlas of the United States_ is a set of 200-odd folios published by USGS between 1894 and 1945. Most volumes include topos, geology maps, cross-sections, photographs, and texts. The _Atlas_ is an important research tool for historical research. Condition of our copies is only fair, but the material is perfectly usable. The reason for this giveaway is that the Map Collection here, after 28 years in the sub-basement, is scheduled to move to the 3rd floor of Regenstein Library this summer. (The sub-basement is needed for compact storage of books.) There doesn't seem much point in moving all those duplicate copies. Please do let me know your postal address if you're interested.
