I for one am interested in any and all Florida related maps or EARLY informational works... of any kind.

If given a choice I would request only the "rarer" or "uncommon" / "unpublished" / "previously unknowns"...

As I have an extensive collection already... and every "common" or widespread in every size form and format.

I know you will be hard pressed to post ones I currently do not have... BUT... I am eagerly awaiting anything new to me.

PS...

This ALSO applies to any documentation or accounts of early (1500 - 1700) explorations... for my collection of this is ever growing and has many gaps for filling so to speak.

Do you have the Hernan de Soto expedition as written by the Portuguese that went with him?

This could have saved Mel Fisher and others a hell of a lot of time. The Marquesas Keys are clearly marked between the Tortugas and Cayo Huesco (Key West).
