We have been online since 2003, and in that time have sold thousands of reproduction maps.
In 2008 we began to publish our own range of "old book" reprints, and new titles are added every month.

As well as providing a unique online-service to the public, some of our products are also stocked by the East of London Family History Society, Kent Family History Society, and Maidstone Museum.
WE WILL BE ATTENDING SEVERAL FAIRS & SHOWS IN 2009 - PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR A LIST OF VENUES

We are now able to print our stock of pre-1950 Ordnance Survey County Series 1:2500 scale maps at near full size, being 33 x 24 inches (originals are 40 x 29 inches).
AS FAR AS WE KNOW, WE WILL BE THE ONLY COMPANY OFFERING THIS SIZE OF REPRODUCTION MAP.
The website will shortly be re-vamped, but in the meantime, please contact us if you are interested in purchasing any of these fantastic maps.

We are also planning to offer all maps as instant downloads (full-size, NOT A3 sections as offered elsewhere). As a temporary measure please contact us if you require a download service for any of our maps.
