Because there seems to be no end to new scans, we have decided on a (relatively low-scale)  reshuffle of some maps available via sub-pages. For this reason, some files, such as German maps, will not be available for the next several days, although they might be already accessible via pull-down manu on Mapster. Please bear with us, what comes out should be a little bit more organized than what came in!
In the meantime, we have also added 34 new sheets of a German 1:800 000 map (this type, was replaced in mid-1920s, by the 1:500,000 and 1: 1 mln scale maps), plus 13 new scans of  German 1:25,000 photomaps (Bildplan). This means the source of those maps at the Poznan university is almost dry (a couple of scans will be added soon). Other sheets, approx 1,500 + will need to be acquired from other sources, which is difficult. We do not expect to have any more sheets of this map type by the end of this year.
