All Historic Map Works MONTHLY and YEARLY SUBSCRIPTIONS include a BASIC PAY-PER-USE account that can be accessed if you exceed your monthly subscription allowances. For example, if you wish to print more than 50 map images at home in a month, it will be useful to have additional credit to use in your PAY-PER-USE account. Likewise, when your monthly subscription expires, your membership will automatically default to the PAY-PER-USE access until you decide to purchase another monthly subscription.
