Reproductions of antique maps, plans and panoramic views fascinate and delight the eye, whether you're an artist, historian, planner, cartographer, geographer or just someone who loves maps. Over 500 images await you, all taken from original engravings, lithographs and manuscript drawings dating from the 13th to the early 20th century.

Our business began in 1964 and is based on the private collection of the first owner, John W. Reps.  Professor Reps added maps, historic prints and 19th century birds-eye views from the finest U.S. and foreign museums, libraries and archives to form the basis of today's collection.

The second and current owner, Prof. Michael A. Tomlan, continues this tradition, working with old map & print shops, historical societies and art galleries to publish cartographically and historically important maps that are decorative and beautiful.
