David Rumsey Historical Map Collection

This is a huge collection of maps from all over. The quality is amazing even under high magnification, just give it a little time for the picture to resolve itself. Another amazing thing is they are free to copy, so many map sites offer poor resolution because they wish to sell you a copy. I hope they may be what someone is looking for.

Sorry the last link goes on a bit but I think you will find it interesting.
 
Arkrite, that second link to the Birmingham map is amazing, the detail at full magnification is unbelievable, brilliant thanks a lot.
