Beautiful, antique map of Boston Bay, Massachusetts including the surrounding towns of Winthrop, Revere, Saugus, Nahant, Lynn, Salem, Swampscott, Marblehead, Quincy, Hingham, Hull and Cohasset. This is an authentic 1903 edition, 1918 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and is NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Boston Harbor looked like more than 115 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! On the back is a description of topographic symbols and map guide.

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 1903, printed 1918
