Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Birmingham/Solihull 1:25, 000 Out Of Copyright mapping now available
I've confirmed the order today for the 10 maps. Price works out at £6.90 each but there will be some postage to add which will be on the invoice once I receive delivery. I'd expect all in £7.50 per map will cover everything if some are wanting to hand over cash this weekend. Otherwise I'll give paypal details once I know the final total. They are being posted today but I might not receive them till next week of course! The maps are a mixture of flat and folded sheets. All published in the 1950's with just one sheet (SJ80 Wolverhampton NW) published 1959 which will have to wait until the New Year to be scanned and uploaded. Not long to wait now though.

Names alongside to show sponsorship (though I'll split the cost evenly between all once we know what the damage is). There are a small number without a name alongside (the ones with the asterisk). I'll get the prices and we can see if anyone else wants to chip in to cover these.

Awesome, thanks Christoph. Anyone else want to chip in before I get a quote? We have about half a dozen more to pick up to cover the whole of the west mids. I still have a few to upload and I'm getting the Wolverhapton sheet on loan this week to scan (should be available for next weekends mapping). We still need sheets for Coventry for instance. I'll sponsor the sheet to the NE of Birmingham that has Sutton on it.

I think, I'll spend the weekend drawing brooks :-) Thanks for scanning these! Do you already have the adjoining sheets to the south and west? Unfortunately not at the present time. They are available from companies like David Archer Maps but the cost will around £8 a sheet (they quote for what you want each time). Currently I'm getting them as and when they come up on ebay for much less (with 2027 in the set to collect its too much at £8 a sheet) but if anyone wants to sponsor a sheet I'll check what the current retail price is. I am happy to sponsor for the two sheets south west and south of the SW Birmingham sheet. I was about to buy an up-to-date map for walking in the area but I rather spend the money for a 50 years old map and walk without a map.

As a follow up, I've now also added the sheet to the NE of Wolverhampton. Looks a totally different place without the motorways! Oxley and Bushbury look useful though; some of those areas are already mapped but I think there is more still to do there. Unfortunately there are also many new roads in the last 50 years as well.
