Antique Boston, Massachusetts 1946 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Quincy, Cambridge, Somerville, Jamaica Plain, Dorchester Milton MA

Beautiful, antique map of Boston, Massachusetts. This is an authentic 1946 edition, 1950 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Suffolk, Norfolk, and Middlesex Counties looked like over 75 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time outside of urbanized areas. 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 1946, printed 1950
