Antique Essex, Connecticut 1944 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Old Saybrook, Westbrook, Ivoryton, Centerbrook, Grove Beach, Clinton

Beautiful, antique map of historic Essex and Old Saybrook, Connecticut and surrounding Middlesex County area on the Connecticut Shoreline. This is an authentic 1944 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what the Connecticut Coast looked like over 75 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! 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.
