Antique Lake Placid, New York 1898 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Adirondacks, St Armand, Wilmington, Keene Jay Elba Essex County NY

Beautiful, antique map of Lake Placid, New York and surrounding Franklin, Clinton & Essex County area. This is an authentic 1898 edition, 1932 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what the Adirondacks looked like more than 125 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed. 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 1898, printed 1932
