I would love maps that show:
Expeditions of Pike up the Arkansas (to Colorado) and Dunbar up the
Red River--mapping the land and inhabitants along the southern
watersheds of the Louisiana Purchase and corollaries to Lewis and
Clark's famed expedition.
Any U.S. military maps charting the several routes taken in the Trail of
Tears forced removal of the Cherokees across Tennessee, southern
Missouri and Arkansas into Oklahoma.
State road maps/US highway maps by decades [would Rand-McNally
donate theirs and sponsor the collection?]
In particular, the State Road Maps published with the various
WPA state tour guides in the late 30s and early 40s.
Sales rep maps for a variety of consumer goods from various decades.
Those are some first thoughts...
