Antique Cumberland, Maryland 1949 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Allegany County, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ridgeley Ellerslie MD
Beautiful, antique map of Cumberland, Maryland and surrounding Allegany County, including parts of Somerset & Bedford County, Pennsylvania and Mineral County, West Virginia. This is an authentic 1949 edition, 1962 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what Western Maryland on the Potomac River looked like over 70 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!
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.
