About Antique Maps

Collectors value maps for their historical and visual appeal. Demand depends on subject (world and U.S. maps are popular), whether a map reflects historic changes, and of course appearance, condition and authenticity (beware of reproductions). Early road maps are also becoming popular, primarily for the graphics on their covers.
