Antique Salem, Massachusetts 1956 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Lynn Peabody Danvers Beverly Topsfield, Wenham Boxford Ipswich MA

Beautiful, antique map of Salem, Massachusetts and surrounding Essex County north of Boston. This is an authentic 1956 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Essex County looked like more than 65 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 these make great gifts.
