I collected a bunch of them at BBN about the time the ARPANET was turned
off and we published them in CCR but I cannot find them in the on-line
version (perhaps I'm searching in the wrong place).
I then donated the originals to the Computer Museum.
Sad story -- I went hunting for maps a few weeks after a new secretary
had thrown away a 20+ year complete collection thinking they were no
longer needed. They were part of BBN's reports to DARPA and DISA. So
somewhere in the National Archives, there's a complete set of maps from
1969 until ARPANET was turned off but the non-Govt copies, except those
I collected, are largely lost.
Thanks!
