Beautiful, antique map of Charleston, West Virginia and surrounding Ohio areas. This is an authentic 1957 edition, 1974 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what West Virginia and Ohio looked like over 60 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map is incredibly large and in the grand 1:250,000 scale. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then!
