The 1898 National Copper Plate set has no such heading. The M101-1 issue used a number of the images from the NCP issue.Jonathan Frankelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09394304413364281189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2880861356762871733.post-11513473954271848592015-07-10T17:38:00.274-07:002015-07-10T17:38:00.274-07:00Hi and excuse the late response to this.
