Can I obtain original overseas mapping produced by Ordnance Survey prior to March 2003?

Ordnance Survey did produce and support overseas mapping, but this is no longer available from us directly. Omni Resources now hold any remaining stocks, as our International Library closed in March 2003. 

I am aware that Ordnance Survey produces an Isle of Man map in the OS Landranger Map series; however, I cannot find it in the OS Explorer Map range. Can I obtain this from Ordnance Survey?
