Who We Are

The Road Map Collectors Association is the only non-profit organization specifically dedicated to the collection and preservation of historic road maps. Membership is open to all persons interested in the collecting of and/or history of road maps. The RMCA has been approved by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization.

What We Do

  1. Preserve the historical aspects of road maps and related cartographic documents;  
  2. Facilitate the collection, preservation and dissemination of information regarding the history of road maps and related cartographic documents;  
  3. Maintain an association of persons interested in road maps and related cartographic documents and provide them with resources they need to collect and preserve road maps, including a quarterly newsletter, and an online information archive; and
  4. Educate the public about historic road maps, and how to collect and preserve them, including at our annual MapCon road map show and our curated revolving exhibits on historic road maps at the Antique Automobile Museum of America, a Smithsonian affiliate, located in Hershey, PA.

If you collect historic road maps or if you are interested in historic road maps, we ask that you consider joining.
