New York Time
Theft Case Rattles Sedate World of Rare Maps
By ALISON LEIGH COWAN
NEW HAVEN, Oct. 2 - With his neat blazer and scholarly air, it was not 
hard for E. Forbes Smiley III to blend in at the Yale rare-books 
library and make
himself at home among its atlases and maps.
But this visit to the Beinecke Library at Yale on June 8 by Mr. Smiley, 
a 49-year-old dealer in antiquities who plied his trade on both sides 
of the Atlantic, took a
turn that has jolted the closed and covetous world of map dealers and 
collectors, as well as the serene if starchy institutions that hold 
treasured maps.
