Do you know how to georeference scanned maps?
I have plenty of scanned maps of Sweden that are
out of copyright. A few are uploaded to Commons,
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Generalstabskartan_s%C3%B6dra_1880
but there are plenty more. And I haven't taken the
time to learn how to do something intelligent with them.
You might want to have a look at http://mapwarper.net/
That page looks like it can georeference and tile old scanned maps.
