Ward Maps in Cambridge is an excellent map store. It's BIG and has a ton of delightful MBTA merch that is creative and fun. I'm suspicious of most antique dealers who are just scavengers of history but Ward's owner is a real maker because he cowrote an excellent book about Boston map history.

Anne Hall Prints and Antiques in Newport is this lovely little walkup studio with all kinds of lovely natural history prints and maps. Elegant. Refined. Small. Killer location. They've been doing great work for decades.

Argosy Books doesn't need my endorsement. They're one of the oldest book sellers in the country and they have a gorgeous four story Manhattan store with this gloriously rickety elevator up to the top where they have a superb collection of maps. Their staff are all scholars, nerds and kind people.

Mainely Maps and Frames is one of my favorite parts of Portland. Classic, expansive (and a whole downstairs!!) and comprehensive. The collection is kind of boring but they have something for everyone walking in the door no matter where they're from. That's hard to pull off! And beautiful frames obvi

Metsker Maps in Seattle is a place I still have never been to. I've heard lovely things. I've been compared favorably by some of our mutual customers. One day I'm going to be that cool and professional.
