Antique Boothbay, Maine 1891 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Georgetown, Westport, Southport, Bristol, Edgecomb Wiscasset Woolwich ME
Beautiful, antique map of Boothbay Harbor, Maine and surrounding Lincoln County area. This is an authentic 1891 edition, 1893 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio and features the rare heading "A Fiord Coast."
See what the Maine Coast looked like over 130 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then! This is one of the rare maps where the topographic symbols and map guide are on the front.
Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts.
Edition of 1891, printed 1893
