Antique Chesapeake Bay, Maryland 1900 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Sassafras River, Crystal Beach, Cecilton, Hack Point, Elk Neck

Beautiful, antique map of upper Chesapeake Bay, Maryland and the Sassafras River and Bohemia River. This is an original authentic 1900 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and is NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Cecil County, Kent County, Elk Neck and Sassafras Neck looked like over 120 years ago before a lot of towns were built. 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.
