Wanted - Michelin Map 153 North-West Africa
Jake - blessed to have spent over 40 years in adventure travel in Africa, Asia, Australia and the USA. Still looking for Michelin 153. I have 152 - Sahara, 154 - NE Africa, 169 - Morocco and 172 - Algeria and Tunisia. I have a search on ebay.fr but nothing turned up so far.
Belonged to The 153 Club at it's inception Tim - when the subs were £1.53! - but my subscription lapsed years back. Nothing much new on their website these days but I'll try Alan Palmer.
Thanks for the replies both of you.

Guess you will find near any unofficial "track" with Wikiloc today. And most even today unpaved roads inside of here.
Both are available as "Apps" on Android or iOS Smartphones. Linked above are a review of those.
I know, you asked specially for Michelin 153 - but those Apps has outperformed papermaps in any way.

I remember the £1.53 days and the meetings in SW London ...
All gone a bit dormant since.
I bet you'd find one on ebay.fr easily enough.
I recently bought a 1955 Shell Guide there for 20 quid which came with a lovely 152 folded in the back.

I see the 153 Club seems to have closed down.
Alan organises walking treks in Morocco and his email address is on the Internet, so I don't think I'm giving anything away by stating his email address is:

Toyark, managed to get one on ebay.fr a while back but thanks for your efforts. Surfy - thanks for that but, it's the paper map that I particularly wanted. Chris - thanks for the offer, I've pm'd you, and yes I got one from France in the end although it took a while...
