Last Tuesday I counted my 100th Springfield while flipping through a 1912 Rand McNally road atlas I picked up at an estate sale in Erie, PA, and I actually said "huh" out loud like a weirdo. Some of these don't even exist anymore, and one was spelled with two G's, which sent me down a 2 hour rabbit hole. How many map ghosts like this do you all keep hunting before you admit it's a problem?
