Antique Hempstead, New York 1903 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Long Island, Nassau County, Freeport, Mineola, Oceanside Woodmere NY

Beautiful, antique map of Hempstead, New York and surrounding Nassau County area on Long Island. This is an authentic 1903 edition, 1929 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Long Island looked like over 115 years ago, before a lot of the land was developed. 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.

Edition of 1903, printed 1929
