179:. Definite encyclopedic value. Unfortunately time has not been kind to this map. The decomposition has not been too extensive in the essential locations, so a restoration would be possible (although it would be laborious) but this particular scan is not high enough resolution. The inscription below and to the right of the title is too pixelated to be very legible and the lines outlining the city blocks are incomplete. This is probably a shortcoming of the scanner settings, not of the map itself. So if a better scan is available I would gladly share restoration tips with the nominator and possibly assist with the work.

High resolution map of the expansion plan of
Gothenburg, very high encyclopedic value despite the fact that all text is in Swedish. Many, if not all of, the buildings and areas in this map which are written out have articles in the english

I can see its high encyclopedic value, but it's torn in some places (I think), and it looks like someone spilled an entire coffeepot on it, especially in the upper right hand corner. the faded text also detracts from the value.

this nomination, when I was about to upload the original resolution of the map I found a copyright claim on the source page. If someone is good at copyright law please contact me at my talk page. --

It's just not an old map, it's a quite unique expansion plan. It is the best preserved unvarying area of 1870–1920 urban planning ideals and architecture in Sweden, maybe even in Europe. --

Faded text? If it help I have it in higher resolution, but the original file is too large for browsers to open I think, and users with low bandwith would have huge troubles viewing it. --

because it's really just a decent scan of an old map. It isn't really that exciting in itself just for being old , else we'd be having every scanned in old document featured.
