Rand McNally Road Atlas. They do a new one each year, but you can look for older ones, either online or in libraries. (I bought one in the 1980s, and tossed it in the trunk of 3 cars in series for emergency use. I replaced it about 5 years ago since it was falling apart. My son laughed at me and said there was no need for a paper backup.)

You can also try a bookstore. They usually have a map section; you can see how old the maps are.

You could try a gas station near Virginia. Some still carry maps, but most no longer have them (doesn't everyone have maps via smartphone?).

When I was a teen, I went a a couple long trips in summers and began collecting road maps. I had about collected road maps of 40 states. These lived in a box for about 35 years, then I recycled them.
