You are probably the best person to search them out and tag them :-) --Tony Wills 09:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Well said :-) Anyway, I'd like to alert others to what I perceive as misunderstanding. First Abraham Ortelius, then the Blaeu called their work Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. Different editions cause more confusion, and then maps sometimes depict a certain time span (in the past, obviously). See overview at en:Atlas, de:Atlas (Kartografie). --Matthead 03:41, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
