Antique Skinner, Maine 1928 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Franklin, Somerset County, Beattie, Lowellton, Forsythe, Holeb, Appleton
Beautiful, antique map of Skinner, Maine and surrounding Franklin & Somerset County on the Canadian border. This is an authentic 1928 print from the U.S. Geological Survey Department of the Interior and the War Department US Army Corps of Engineers. It is an original and NOT a computer reproduction. It is also a very rare Advanced Sheet.
See what Maine looked like over 95 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 1928, printed 1928
