Old JR maps?

December 16, 2007 9:21 AM

Where can I find old Japan Rail maps? I saw hand-painted bird's eye perspective JR maps like this at the Tokyo Hands department store while traveling, but don't have the language skills to navigate their website.

I don't think you can order the book from their site without living in Japan.

Do you have any more information about the book, like the title? In Japanese or otherwise?

Response by poster: the maps weren't actually in a book. they were sold individually, in small poster size, perhaps 15" x 30". perhaps there is another source than tokyo hands, too...
