Antique Chesapeake Bay, Maryland 1915 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Rock Hall Baltimore Abingdon Aberdeen Tolchester Kent County MD

Beautiful, antique Areal Geology map of Chesapeake Bay, from Halls Crossroads and Elk River in the North to Rock Hall and Kent Island in the South. This is an authentic 1915 edition, 1915 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio.

See what The Cheseapeake looked like 110 years ago. Places have disappeared or completely changed in the Bay since then. 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! This is one of the rare maps where the topographic symbols and map guide are on the front.

Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Vintage maps such as this make great gifts.

Edition of 1915, printed 1915
