I have an 1909 out-of-copyright book from the library.  It has a 
fold-out map that is bound with the book, so I can't take it out.
How do I hold the map flat to get a good photo?

My current photos are not my proudest moment:

Click on the image for full 2592x3750 resolution.

Note that map longitudes are relative to Ferro.  Subtract exactly 
18° to get Greenwich longitudes.

Note also the dashed lines between Umeå and Vasa, across the Gulf 
of Bothnia, and also across Åland Islands, marking "winter roads", 
i.e. sleigh routes across the ice.
