Antique Maps & Antique Prints News
In order to increase coverage of antique maps and antique prints around the internet, we are changing the format of the blog a little. Previously, we have previewed antique map and print auctions in-depth, by highlighting interesting lots for sale. In the future, we will continue to announce the upcoming auctions, but we will just announce the basic information, such as category of sale and date. This will allow us to devote more time to covering the antique maps and antique prints community around the internet. After all, if you are interested in a specific auction, their site is just a click away, because we always include a link to the auction website. Please shoot us an email if you feel there is something worth covering that we are not blogging about.
