Many thanks to all those who replied on where to buy maps in Utrecht. In the event the Selexyz Broese shop, near the town hall, was better than the Interglobe, the latter had a shop attendant rather less familiar with maps than the Selexyz did. For info for non-Dutch members, many towns have an ANWB shop on the edge of centre, selling maps. For older maps, maybe worth noting that the small town of Leusden, just south of Amersfoort, last year reinstated its annual book, maps, art market - just held this year's on 18 September so could be worth going to next year, it had a lot of stalls right through the Winkelcentrum. The Emmaus charity shops also often have some maps of The Netherlands, ca. 1980, not so old but interesting for towns like Utrecht that have grown extremely rapidly, whole new suburbs like Terwijde being laid out since then.
