Sanborn has donated the insurance maps to the Library of Congress, who, along with Sanborn is scanning the maps so that they can be viewed in digital format on the LOC web site (see http://www.loc.gov/today/pr/1997/97-204.html). I worked for the company that donated the large format color scanner to the LOC in the mid 90s. Sanborn also acquired a couple of scanners for their map library in Connecticut and I did the training for them. I don't know how many are on line at this stage, but you should be able to view the ones that are. You should also be able to access a catalog to see if the maps exist over your area and what dates of coverage there are.
