This map is in horrible shape, but cool, vibrant colors, loaded with historical value, and it was folded...., yes someone folded it and not in a nice way either..., I thought of putting it in a two way glass frame, what do you think? Anyhow this one is dated 1942, and has my uncles name in pencil on it somewhere..., I forget..., I put it back into storage after taking these pictures...., what do you have?

What's up world of collectors?



I have this map of Washington State, I bought it for about $1.00 at an old store that was closing down, not enough business and the man there was tired of it. I researched this map for a while...., got tired of it... and put it away...., a while later I came across it again and got curious..., I e-mailed a few places but they all wanted to see the map.... unfortunetly at the time they were too far to drive, and bus service would have been a nightmare. I researched it on-line again and came across a map identical to this was selling for $750.00 That's a lot of green..., still I have yet to find anyone willing to buy it let alone trade something decent for it. Anyhow it's in my collection now, and probably will be for a while longer...., do you have any interesting finds, low purchases with high value? I want to hear about it!!!
