A few weeks ago I went to a zero waste shop and picked up some cool maps. I hear that they are now in Musselburgh shop and have taken 15,000 maps there.

Edinburgh uni were going to dump there maps in landfill, some are rare and or interesting.
A zero waste charity got hold of them and are selling them for £2 each in a shop in Musselburgh.

I got some interesting war office ones from the 40s a series of geological ones of the outer hebrides, which will make a great image in the stairwell and a German ethnographic on from 1941,which is quite chilling.
