However, check the frontispiece for the publisher....if still in business, contact them. Also, Google has many sites to answer Qs about copywrited material. I believe that there is a time limit for copywrites before the item enters public domain. Hope this helps.

Very interesting but no individual state maps. Copyrighted in 1881. How would I find out if it still is copyrighted ? If there is NO copy right, I would be willing to make copies for anyone. Dorothy
