Antique New London County, Connecticut WALL SIZE 1979 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Old, East Lyme, Waterford, Groton, Norwich, ct

Beautiful, antique and *very large* map of New London County, Connecticut. This is an authentic 1979 edition, 1980 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Connecticut looked like over 40 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house and building that existed at the time (no small feat for how large the map is). The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then!

This map is very large, about 4 feet by 4 feet, and the print is as detailed as the smaller USGS maps. The breadth of detail is incredible and would be the focal point of wherever it is hung. (See coin in the bottom right corner of the map in first photo for scale.) Verso is blank.

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 or office decoration.

Edition of 1979, printed 1980
