The YEP today (August 15 2011) has a report on page 9 titled 'Maps reveal city in sights of the Nazis'. The mapscover Leeds, Wakefield, Dewsbury and Batley and unnamed other towns. There is also an online version (titled 'Nazi's 'bomb map' of Leeds up for sale') which can be brought up through this link: http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/n ... 3680509The auction sale price is forecast to be up to £200, which does not seem that much unless the maps are copies.

Having just remembered this thread I've looked at the auction site and found that the collection of maps sold for £340.
