Blogs about antique maps, rather than the geospatial industry, are few and far between, but a new blog about antique maps and map collecting, plus the usual gamut of general subjects, started last month, with an eerily similar premise: Map the Universe.

I have always loved maps, especially vintage maps and antique maps. I would like to start to collect antique maps, but I really don’t know where to begin. Map the Universe is a blog that will document what I learn about the world of antique maps and antique map collecting as I go along. More than likely, Map the Universe will also contain more general information on mapping and cartography, as I would also like to increase my general knowledge in mapping.

Sounds like me three years ago. Also by another damn Canadian. Via Cartography.
