Hi maps for the memories,
Good point. I to collect and display with a VERY strong appreciation of history. A large part of my collection has a direct tie to New Mexico. For me, it's fun to point out things to visitors and describe how they relate to the history of our region.
If we don't promote the hobby as an element of preserving the history of the gas and oil industry a lot of it will just fade away. IMO.
By the way, I display a few of my maps leaning op against the wall next to globes of the same brands; looks great! Guess what? They are all old maps of New Mexico.
