Antique Sacramento, California 1887 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Yuba, Sutter, Placer, El Dorado, Sheridan, Ewing, Lincoln, CA

Beautiful, antique map of Sacramento, California and surrounding area. This is an authentic 1887 edition, 1893 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio.

See what California looked like over 135 ago, in the 1800's before most of this land was developed. 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! This is one of the rare maps where the topographic symbols and map guide are on the front.

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 1887, printed 1893

Dimensions: 18 1/2" width x 22" height
