Subject: OSS maps digitized

From: "Mark A. Thomas" <[log in to unmask]>
Is anyone familiar with any systematic project ongoing or in the works
to scan World War II vintage OSS maps? Any of these already online?
We're looking for a quick "test" digitization project here, and,
although these aren't exactly high-use maps, many are at least
interesting historical curiosities. Many are page size, like their CIA
descendants, and would work as a test project for a 12x17 inch scanner
we have. We might not tackle the larger ones yet. I just don't want to
duplicate the work of others.
Thanks,
Mark
