I must confess to a certain degree of guilt in this non-crediting of images. The <retronaut> site was sent to me for other images on it and I saw the maps and passed the site on to <maphist> without any checking. One of the curses of the <internet> is well-meaning proliferation of material without proper checking of copyright and even considerations of common courtesy of citing the responsible party for material in the public domain gathered by someone.

I would have preferred that he pointed his users to my website.
