It appears that this map is from 1977. I couldn't find a typical print year on it, just a code that said 1/77, which is likely the print date. This map does show all the Amoco gas stations in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia at the time. The locations were few and far between though.

 

This map also had some interesting ads in it too some chains were represented by a certain number on the map. Others, such as Albert Pick Hotels, Holiday Inn, and Coachmen Recreational Vehicles were represented by their logo.

 

Here are some more maps and map images that I figured I would share to go along with the ones I posted before. I figured I would do these as a mass upload then go back to the more typical retail pictures I post.

 

The full road maps were way too large to fit into the scanner and I didn't want to risk damaging the maps so I mostly copied covers, advertisements, and certain city maps. I do want to figure out a decent way to photograph the full maps without harming them. All of these ones are larger than the Ohio Turnpike Map I posted before.

More sketches from Paraty. I'm never oriented until I draw a map. Sketched from a variety of sources, none of which seemed to show all the things I wanted to see.

While there are many records of the Western countries, historical maps of the Middle East are very scarce. Thus, it is really difficult to recreate the historical geography of Turkey, Lebanon, the Kurdish regions, Armenia or Iraq, all the more as the populations were speaking various languages. The replacement of the Ottoman script with a Latin alphabet in 1928, the specific Armenian and Georgian alphabets, the various transcriptions of Arabic words and the numerous transliterations of some names (e.g. from Kurdish to Arabic, then to Ottoman Turkish and finally to modern Turkish) makes it quite impossible to locate some places.

Here is a map of the Ottoman Empire realized by Louis Vivien de Saint-Martin and Adolphe Noël des Vergers and published in Paris by Charles Picquet in 1845. Names and borders are legible. Therefore it will be possible to spot the ancient places with their modern equivalents, to search for the small 19th century Kurdish or Armenian autonomies or to examine the border between the Pashalik of Baghdad and Iran.

I've pointed out the locations of the three cities we traveled to on our trip to China

All the official TOPW walks since November 2013 through to our 5th Anniversary party, Nov15 2014.

New Tool in Flickr. I just checked our photostream to see a link to "map" in the toolbar. The link lead nowhere but things are promising :)

the trip started in montreal, headed west first, and completed the loop just over 60 days later.

Just like the new county-wide map, the new Woking bus map (effective September 2011) is riddled with errors.

 

Can anyone see any others?

The Bergslag Trail is one of Sweden’s longest hiking trails. The trail stretches from Kloten in the north to Stenkällegården in the south, a total length of 280 km. It's a wonderful trail. :)

Where I will be spending next week...

Iquitos is only accessible by boat and plane - but it is quite a large town despite its isolation.

 

We will be traveling up and down the river, hopefully capturing some amazing photography along the way...

Map of Trenton, Ontario, issued August 1917 by the Trenton Board of Trade and Town Council. T. F. Rixon, Secretary Board of Trade; P. J. O'Rorke, Chairman of Civic Industrial Committee; W. H. Ireland, Mayor.

 

Item loaned for scanning by Quinte West Public Library in June 2023.

 

Partly missing text top right due to ink damage. The missing words (taken from another copy of the same map) should read:

 

"Industries

1 British Chemical Company's plant

2 The R. Weddell Dredging Co.

3 The Trenton Cooperage Co.

4 The Trent Manufacturing Co.

5. The Barr Registers (Ltd)"

I'm looking at the question, "where do you live?" on the batch of survey responses I've received thus far, and decided to hand-geocode them - which resulted in almost exactly the map I expected.

 

Blue dots are SurveyMonkey responses, largely resulting from a link e-mailed to neighborhood association contacts. Pink dots are paper responses from surveys distributed via the public library, City Hall, the public housing commission, and the free medical clinic.

 

The resulting map sums up Ypsi's digital divide pretty handily, but also demonstrates the coordination levels of various neighborhood associations.
