The maps in the Quarterly reflect the production methods in use when an issue is published. The maps published in the first 36 years (1937-1973) of the Tredyffrin Easttown History Club Quarterly were mimeographed and drawn on a stencil. The maps published in the 1978-2003 Tredyffrin Easttown History Club Quarterly were produced by offset printing and are either originally drawn or traced from other maps. From 2003 to the present, the maps published in both the Tredyffrin Easttown History Club Quarterly (2003-2004) and the Tredyffrin Easttown History Quarterly (2005 to the present) are prepared digitally; a variety of early and modern maps have been digitized and reproduced.

Illustration from page 184

This map, showing the old Blue Ball Tavern and the new Blue Ball Tavern, is a good example of how maps can clarify locations. The distinction between these two Taverns, also called Inns, and both of which are still standing, is a source of perennial confusion among local residents. This was first brought about when the roads were realigned in 1793 and the tavern was relocated to be closer to the new road. When the railroad was put in, in the 1830s, traffic on the new route of the road declined and the tavern at the new site again lost a good business location. Tredyffrin Easttown History Club Quarterly, vol. 2, no. 2 (April 1939), p. 26.
