well, not all of them.
We do have as separate groups:
a. plates from atlas (that 1960s or thereabouts set of maps)
b. Making of America
c. Making of Canada.
but cataloging is in some ways a jesuitical
trade, and certainly one could make a record
for, e.g., all the NGS maps that accompany
the periodical. (I'd sure stay away from cataloging
ALL the maps that NGS has ever issued - whether
in periodical or sep - as one series).
What will access to each individual map be?
gigantic 505s?
