Woh, who's complaining! To me that's like complaining because someone gave you the gift of a paperbound set of the Great Books instead of a luxury gilt on leather version. Low resolution pictures...

Lower right hand corner of the page in my Firefox, there's a shaded box with the text "View in Map Warper." Open that page and look for the index tab labeled "Export." It's there.

@MrMLK - look again sir. It's free to download the original full resolution tif version and if it's been geo referenced that too. Just go to the Export tab. They are around 60mb each.

Just so you know, its free to download a low resolution version. Its $50 each to download a high resolution copy. I'm am not quit as impressed as I was before.
