Nope, Not Harvard's Champlain Map

By way of update to yesterday's story, Harvard officials have determined that the 1612 Champlain map scheduled for sale at Sotheby's is not the one missing from their collections. Canwest News Service reports a statement from Harvard spokesperson Beth Brainard saying that curators "have found enough discrepancies to believe that the one for sale is not the one missing from Harvard."
