Hi Mirrors,

I think I speak for lots of people when I say we are interested :cool:

Could you post 1 or 2 examples on this thread for the mob to have a squiz at? Just thinking it will save you a lot of PM responses. Same with the following questions that I'm sure others will ask.

What size are the originals? A4, A3?

Are you able to scan and email them? Would mean you could do it once, keep them on file and send them out at your leisure rather than heaps of photocopying and postage costs. Would also mean I can print them out at work on A3 and laminate them, etc.

Interested to know where you found them. Library research, friends, Trove? Understand if you don't want to give specifics, just curious ;)

Thanks :Y:

Nice :Y: That legend is interesting. To be honest I've never looked hard for old maps and have just relied on GeoVic and Trove for info.

How much for your whole collection? :lol:

Just replied to your post last night about Beechworth too :perfect:
 
Hi
All the maps that you are looking for were available on 2 CD's from the Dept of Natural Resources and Environment in Melbourne they are titled.
Unpublished Geological Parish Plan Series and
Miscellaneous Geological Maps and Goldfield Maps
Hope this helps
Cheers DB
