Beautiful, antique composite map of the Adirondacks: Indian Lake and West Canada Lakes, New York quadrangles and surrounding Hamilton County area. This is an authentic 1910's & 20's print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. At some time in the past, someone combined the two maps and backed them with canvas. Was most likely used in the field and is one-of-a-kind unique.

See what The Adirondacks looked like 100 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 this make great gifts.

Edition of circa 1910s, printed circa 1920s

Dimensions: 25 1/2" width x 17 1/2" height
