My friend died with their spawn map in their inventory then all maps showed up blank for them still worked for me, then I died with mine shortly after and they stopped working for me too. They just show up blank whether they are new or not.

Is this still an issue in the latest version (1.17.11)? If so, can you please add it to the affected versions (or mention it if you are not the reporter).

I can confirm that this is still an issue for me on the Switch with 1.17.11. I am not the original reporter but experienced exactly the same thing.
It is still definitely affecting my world on the latest Switch version. It is a permanent issue - once it has happened it cannot be recovered from and even affects Creative Mode.
Thank you for your report!

I can confirm that this is an issue on the Nintendo Switch too and has existed since pre-1.17. It is still an issue in 1.17.2. Only copies of the original map can be held in the offhand, all new maps (other than Buried Treasure Maps) are blank and cannot be held either like any normal item or in the offhand 'shield' slot. This applies to Empty Maps and Empty Locator Maps whether made with a crafting table or a map table.
