We can locate towns (if names are spelled correctly) that were in the 1871-1918 German Empire. We cannot locate towns formerly in the Austro-Hungarian or Russian empires. Most town searches are very time consuming, and the charge per town-name search (positive or negative) is $7.50. To locate small towns and villages, it often is necessary to consult several gazetteers, after which our unindexed, detailed sectional maps have to be searched carefully. If the town is located, we send a photocopy showing the town and indicate the map(s) to order. Send town name and variant spellings. If known, include names of nearby towns, administrative district, and former German state. A readable photocopy of the document showing the name also is helpful. Indicate type and scale of map wanted. Send payment with your request.
1. Map scale is a representative fraction which gives the ratio of a map distance to the corresponding distance on the earth's surface. For example, 1:100,000 indicates that one unit of measure on the map equals 100,000 units of the same measure on the ground. Most European maps are cm:cm.
2. All special-order maps must be prepaid.
3. The customer is responsible for ordering the correct map. Special-order maps cannot be exchanged or returned for refund.
4. Institutions interested in purchasing an entire map series should request a price quote for significant savings.
5. We do not sell maps of the United States.
6. SASE = self-addressed stamped envelope (9-1/2" x 4").
All special-order maps are backordered. If in-stock maps or merchandise and special-order maps are ordered at the same time, there will be two shipping charges ($9.00). The description of each map series indicates whether maps are folded or rolled. If folded and rolled maps are backordered and only $4.50 is paid for the backordered maps, rolled maps will be folded so both can be sent together. The charge to send backordered folded maps and rolled maps separately is $9.00 ($4.50 each).
