Antique Cape Selborne, Antarctica 1963 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Ross Ice Shelf, Byrd Glacier, Churchill Range, Britannia Range

Beautiful, antique map of Cape Selborne and the Ross Ice Shelf of Antarctica. This is an authentic 1963 print from the U.S. Geological Survey Reconnaissance Series and not a computer reprint.

See what Antarctica looked like almost 60 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then!

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 1963, printed 1963

Dimensions: 30" width x 26" height
