Notes:
A
road atlas issued by the Highway Department was issued in 1910. This atlas
contains maps for each county in
The
information for the 1912 through 1925 maps listed below was gathered from scans
found on the Ohio DOT web site (Office of Technical Services). Viewing these
scans required special software which is available from the site. The maps in
this group all appear to be printed on one side only with no cover. The sizes
listed are approximate.
Maps
after 1982 are dated in several places, including the cover, copyright dates,
and publication dates. The most reliable dates appear to be the publication
dates, so these have been used for the map date on the list below. Publication
dates in the fall of a given year are listed as the following year (i.e. 9/85
is listed as a 1986 map).
The
1996 map states that 2,000,000 transportation maps and 200,000 motorcycle maps
were printed. The Motorcycle map features a color picture of a motorcyclist on
the cover, and is entitled "The Official 1996 Ohio Motorcycle Map."
