With everyone from Ptolemy to the 1890s,\u00a0George Ritzlin Antique Maps & Prints\u00a0<\/em>has sold centuries-old atlases and prints for decades. \u00a0Not only does this online atlas connect you with multiple galleries full of cool old maps, but it also offers a place to learn more about cartographers and the history of mapmaking – not to mention a collection of scholarly references available to the public as a study resource.<\/p>\n

I recommend visiting their\u00a0“News” tab<\/a>\u00a0for a moment, which is updated sporadically with interesting or unusual maps. \u00a0Currently posted is a map of the Chicago Transit Authority elevated system tattooed on a woman’s foot.<\/p>\n
