The picture in message 4528 (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BoundaryPoint/message/4528) is taken of boundary marker 7, and is south of the road. Number 8 is north of the road, while number 6 (metal plate) is in the middle of the road crossing.

Subject: [BoundaryPoint] Re: Another Büsingen map

On both maps I have seen before this one (the "Farmer G." map, as I call it, and the recently posted topomap), Buesingen boundary marker no. 7 is on the north side of the road, just like nos. 6, 8, and 9, leaving this road entirely in Germany (until the crossroads at no. 6). But on this map, no. 7 is on the south side! I find this very strange! Was the road changed (unlikely), was the boundary changed (even more unlikely), or is this an error on the map? A very strange error to make, however! I would say that the most likely cause is that no. 7 was illegally moved to the other side of the road, and the maker of this map consequently was misled about the course of the boundary. Although I realise that this too is a very wild guess and only sounds a trifle more likely than the other possibilities.
