    I've always been interested in finding a good set of resources for "the best real-world" type maps. I am sure the Smithsonian has plenty, though it's hard to find them; I like Schiaparelli's mapping of Mars from 1877 https://www.google.com/search?q=schi...w=1536&bih=750 , I notice one recent finished-map thread says it's "loyal imitation of the style of the 1922 type topographical map of France" https://cartographersguild.com/showthread.php?t=47210 , etc.. Not sure if there's a good collection of similar such links here at the Guild.

    To add to the museum that make some of their pieces available, there's Gallica's website in France (French National Library) with a specific page for maps.
