'89 Liberty MCI 2 Posted April 20, 2008 Share #1 Posted April 20, 2008 I was wondering, does anyone have any old maps they might want to give away/sell/trade for? I'm looking for the 1979-1998 era map, looks like this. In particular I like the ones with the JFK Express (80s), B/Q/F/S running to Queensbridge at various times (late 90s), R to 179th Street, individual route maps on the back. Thanks.

keysersoze 0 Posted May 13, 2008 Share #10 Posted May 13, 2008 Old subway maps... look for them on e-bay! Surprisingly enough, a NYC subway map from the late 70's was recently for bid on german ebay. Since demand for NYC transit memorabilia isn't too high here in Germany, I luckily got the map (near mint condition) for 1 Euro (1,60$)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not been on it in my entire life, but i've been on all the other bridges and in all the tunnels in the city.
