1893 Map of Lida

This 1893 map was reprinted in 1913, titled "Slonim".  This is just the upper left quadrant, which is most but not all of the Lida District.  The scale is 1:300,000.  As I get time, I may add the other quadrants, though they're of lesser interest to Lida District researchers.  The original map is  15" x 18"; this scan represents the maximum area our scanner can handle.  Thanks to Dariusz Lasocki and Marv Brooks for this map.

I scanned this section of the map at 600 dpi, because the smallest font used is 4 points or less.  This makes the file enormous - it's slightly over 7Mb, so don't click on the thumbnail unless you've got time!  I may also, if I can find the time, experiment with lesser resolution & higher compression.
