Historic Map Works currently has 15,345 atlases composed of 687,980 maps and
illustrations online. Includes collection of 100,000 cadastral, land ownership maps detailing the geographic

across America.
In addition, the print collection contains over 100,000 contemporaneous pages of
illustrations and over 1,000 city directories related to the cadastral maps,

centuries. This exclusive program with the University of Southern Maine's Osher
Map Library, includes many of the world's most important printed maps.
Thousands of high quality, digital map images from all categories (maps,
illustrations and directories) are added monthly. Full color, fine art quality
printed reproductions and low cost, black and white research prints are
available.
