Antique Main Line, Pennsylvania 1894 US Geological Survey Map – Valley Forge, Merion, Norristown, Haverford, Radnor, Bryn Mawr, Villanova PA

Beautiful, antique map of the sedimentary rock formations of the Main Line, just northwest of Philadelphia on the Schuylkill River. This is an authentic 1894 edition, 1908 print from a U.S. Geological Survey folio and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what the historic Main Line looked like more than 120 years ago—Home of Valley Forge, Villanova and Bryn Mawr, including three striata diagrams. Map has lots of intricate details and geological contours—even little squares for every house that existed at the time. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then! This is also one of the rare maps that has the map legend on the front.

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.
