Do you have any old road maps, particularly those issued by gas stations, oil companies, or state highway departments? Our non-profit organization welcomes donations of such maps. The value of your donated maps, along with your postage costs, is tax-deductible. We will provide a receipt for your donation, though we are unable to reimburse postage or provide valuation advice. (Checking recently sold items on eBay may be helpful for determining value.)

To see if your maps are a good fit for our collection, please contact our donations committee using the form below. Sharing information about your maps, such as scans or photos of the covers, can help minimize your postage costs. Please note that we have limited interest in most recent AAA and National Geographic maps. While some older tourist maps and brochures can be collectible, we are not the best market for them, nor are we well-suited for topographic maps from the US Geological Survey.

Common map donations are auctioned or sold on a dollar table at our annual meeting to help defray our operating expenses such as web hosting and publication of our newsletter. Thank you for thinking of us!

There’s more information about our non-profit status and tax deductibility on the Taxes and Your Donations Page, and information on how to offer maps for sale to club members is on the frequently asked questions page.
