QUEBEC OFFICIAL MAPS

 

Notes:

 

Maps from 1926 to 1936 have a code on the front cover, consisting of 3 or 4 numbers separated by dashes. From 1926 to 1929, this code appears to indicate the date of issue, indicated in "day-month-year" format. From 1930 until early 1935, an edition number is appended to the beginning of the issue date (4 number code, "edition-day-month-year"). Starting with the 2nd edition for 1935, and continuing through 1936, it appears that the day was dropped from the code, changing the format to "edition-month-year". This code was dropped in 1937 and thereafter.

 

The [1966] map is dated by comparison to earlier and later maps.

 

It is believed that two versions (English & French) were produced annually since 1978. Only known versions are listed.
