I'm in Arizona. I'm looking for someone that has knowledge of philatelic maps. I have 60+ sheets with 4 maps on each sheet. K bileski is the persons name in the paperwork that came with the maps. Do you know if these have any value or are useful to someone or can you put me in contact with someone in Arizona?

Thank you.

The attached photos are just an example of the maps. I have 72 sheets of maps. Each sheet has 4 maps. They are all from different countries, some of which no longer exist. The second photo is the back of the map sheets. Each map sheet also has different drawings on the backs. The yellow pages are just a sample of some of the pages that came in the package with the maps.

Welcome to Stamp Community Forum, Durangojv!

Bileski was a well-known stamp dealer in Canada.

Please post a picture of what you have, and the paperwork. Otherwise, I can only guess that what you mean by philatelic map is a map with spaces on it to affix stamps for that particular country/region. Yes, no? Or is it the other way around (stamps printed on the back of maps)?

I've been looking around on the web to find out more about these maps - I have an interest in philatelic maps. Plenty on Bileski, but I pretty much drew a blank on the maps.

They are sold though. Here's a few links to give you an idea of the asking prices:
