Hi Everyone
Recently I was searching online for old maps of cities and towns in my area and I found out that Flickr can be potential resource for finding Sanborns and other old maps. I had some luck finding ones for Massachusetts cities and towns. I wanted to give the forum a heads up. I'm hoping that other forum member will be able to find maps for their areas as well. A nice feature is that after you left click on an image t you can right click and download them in different sizes. I usually download them in "original" size which is usually the largest. I includes some example links below.
