A Source for Old USGS (1900's) Arizona Maps

First, Go to this link.

Then scroll down, keeping an eye on the "Digital file URL" column, looking for URL's or websites.

Copy and paste the address into your web browser and there you go!

Once there, move your curser up to the top left, (this is how I do it), and hopefully a small rectangle will appear with icons inside it that will allow you to "Save as", "Print", 'E-mail file" and "Open save directory".

Click the icon of your choice - that's it.

There's not alot of maps available yet but one should check back every few months in case more are added.

Another way is to go to the Thumbnail Section" - move your curser to the top left and so on as in the first choice.

I hope this makes sense !

FYI. The new downtown phoenix library has a room specifically filled with old maps of the phoenix metro area going back over 100 years.

I'm talking about the Burton Barr Central Library. Downtown at McDowell and Central.

I guess it's not "that" new, I just lived there so long I was used to the old one.
