Two messages about sources of Egyptian maps.------ Johnnie -------------------------------------------- Tue, 26 Apr 1994 07:12 EST <JSHANTON@USGSRESV> RE: SOUTHEAST EGYPT - seeking maps check with Lib. Of Congress. They sometimes have maps of larger scale than the 1:250,000. They may be older vintage but should do. Another possible source would be Robert Bier with the USGS, Geologic Div.'s Cartographic Info. Center in Reston Va. His phone # is 703 648-6207. Hiss Div has exchange pgm's with other countries for thematic maps. Div. has exchange pgm's with other countries for thematic maps and may have coverage of SE Egypt. They have a list of local copy outfits that are authorized to take the originals and make copies at a charge. Some have color and b/w capabilities. They deal directly with you the customer for all costs. The Lib. Of Congress also has reproduction capabilities and will let you know their charges. John Shanton Earth Science Info. Cntr.

The Univ. of Mich. has these sets and I'm sure many more depository libraries have them.
