Hi,
This is my first post, as I'm new to the forum. I have three Sinclair road maps one is for Kansas and dated 1932 that was easy to see. The other is for Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi and I can not find a date on it except for the listing of the towns for each state it shows a population estimate from 1934, so I'm inclined to think it is from 1934. Is there anywhere else on the map that would have a year on it? The 3rd map is also Sinclair for Central and Western United States, again no obvious date but the populations are based on the 1970 census or later. So again does that mean that the map is from 1970? I have photos, but couldn't figure out how to upload them to this post, sorry.
Thanks

Hi again,
As a new member I'm supposed to submit a few forum items so I'm checking off a few questions that I have. I have two gas globes, 3 piece-glass. These were my Dads and he had them for many years. While researching the globes I see a lot of "reproduced". Is there a way I can verify that my globes are original? I never doubted they were anything, but original until I started to research them. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Jeri, possibly the website "Dating Rand McNally and Gousha Road Maps" will help you in your search?
