Professor Emeritus Paul Retish presents a selection of his collection of antiques maps during an Iowa Bibliophiles event at the Main Library Special Collections.
Retish taught in the University of Iowa’s College of Education. He began collecting maps more than 40 years ago and used maps as a tool in special-education
classrooms, his specialty in the college. Iowa Bibliophiles meets the second Tuesday of every month during the academic year and uses a theme connecting with
the collection of rare books and printed materials. (Nick Rohlman/The Daily Iowan)
