Hi all,

We have discovered a pile of WW2-era photomaps of Hawaii in our drawers, apparently most (or all?) covering parts of Oahu.
There's no series title, but they are all labelled along the lines of:

no. 1 Kahana Bay area
scale 1:10,000
date Jan. 1940.
reproduced by the Department Engineer. Map reproduction plant. Fort Shafter.

The numbers and areas covered include:
nos. 1-2 Kahana Bay area
nos.1-7 Kahuku
nos. 1-3 Kailua
nos.1-3 Kaneohe
nos.1-2 Koko Head
Makua  [no number, so much be a 1-sheet title]
Mahaka  [no number, so much be a 1-sheet title]
nos.1-4 Waimanalo.

Can anyone point me to a series record for this lot (or have you all catalogued them individually only?) and is there an index for them someone can scan or point me to?

Thanks!

Brendan
