Antique New Orleans, Louisiana 1950 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Jefferson Parish, Metairie, French Quarter, Treme Ward Audubon LA

Beautiful, antique map of New Orleans, Louisiana and surrounding Orleans, St Charles, Plaquemines & Jefferson Parishes on the Mississippi River down to Lake Salvador. This is an authentic 1950 edition, 1966 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what New Orleans looked like over 70 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.
