Thoughts on these?
This will be short… I’ve retyped this post for the third time as the app continues to crash 😡
Bought these for $100 15 years ago. I realize it’s just a print, but can’t find any other versions of it. Was from an old bank that had them for an unknown amount of time. Figured I’d finally ask the interwebs. Can’t find anything myself other than the actual original seems to be rare and valuable.

Martha’s Vineyard 1981 Map
My husband and I found this at a thrift store recently. Most info online seems to be conflicting, but it’s a gorgeous print that we plan on professionally framing.

Can anybody tell which period is this map related to?
Father of a friend of mine has it at home… I always was intrigued by that as I saw it for many years. He said he purchased in some southern France shop in late 70s.

Some old maps from my library
Here are some of my old maps. They are mostly pulled from various books in my library.
First is a map of Hannibal's march through Spain, Gaul, the Alps, and on into Italy during the Second Punic War. Printed 1739.
Second is a map of the Environs of Rome during the Kingdom and Republic. Printed circa 1800.
The third is a map of Sicily in what I assume to be the third century BC, as it was taken from a volume of Rollin's Histoire Romaine which recounts the First Punic War. Printed 1740.
Fourth is a map of Greece about the 3rd century BC(?). Printed circa 1800.
Fifth is a map of Asia Minor in Hellenic times. Printed circa 1780s(?).
Sixth is a map of Egypt, Libya and other neighboring regions in Hellenic times. Printed circa 1800.
Seventh is a map of Numidia in the second century BC roughly. Printed circa 1800.
Eighth is a map (unframed) of the Parthian Empire during the first couple centuries AD. Printed 1749.
Particular credit to Christopher Boyd of Clayton's in Whittier, California for the elegant frames. May God rest his soul. The frames for Numidia and Sicily are my personal favorites.
