Antique Meredosia, Illinois 1931 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Versailles, Naples, Bluffs, Cooperstown, Perry, Elkhorn, Mt Sterling
Beautiful, antique map of Meredosia, Illinois and surrounding Pike, Brown, Cass, Morgan, Scott & Schuyler County area on the Illinois River. This is an authentic 1931 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what Illinois looked like over 90 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.
Edition of 1931, printed 1931
Dimensions: 16 1/2" width x 20" height
