So I'm looking to purchase or print historical Old Land Maps. Without getting scammed online ads, does anyone here recommend a particular site?

Some years ago I had some done at Staples.
I just brought in a printed legal sized map I printed off the internet. They enlarged then laminated it then.

It's a bit grainy but most can be if enlarged.

I have trouble finding the timeline of the area I'm searching too. There is a company on Facebook that advertises old maps from the 1800s that's exactly what I'm looking for but of course it's not to be trusted. PC says SCAM...

Ok what state or area you're interested in.
I have looked at a few mapping sites that offer prints.

I wouldn't trust much off a FB site.
Too many algorithms working, and they throw the search to the crap sites.

I do trust institutions like universities.

1/2 of an old sealer filled with pennies.

Just for the future 🌶 don't carry it by the lid.

When? Now! Our rivers are all at flood stage.
Normally you drive down the ramp and out 50 feet on the river bar.

Language attempt.....

Well it looks like another coffee maker is needed. I put it in a basin, filled the reservoir, and now there's water around the unit.

Careful with new coffee pot purchase the "sinister prime minister" will have listening devices in the new ones!
