There&#039;s also an earlier map of Guernsey circa 1902, and plenty of correspondence about what projection the new map should use (since it would have fallen outside then then brand spanking new National Yard Grid).<br /> <br /> ==People with camera copies==<br /> [[User:Ritchie333|Ritchie]] would have got a full scan, but decided to save his money for getting a round of drinks in Milton Keynes instead later that evening. Time will tell whether or not this was a foolhardy adventure.</div>
