Beautiful, antique map of Colchester, Illinois and surrounding McDonough, Schuyler and Hancock County areas. This is an authentic 1913 edition, 1916 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio.

See what Illinois looked like over 110 years ago. 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 these make great gifts.

Edition of 1913, printed 1916

Dimensions: 18 1/2" width x 22" height
