Antique Swans Island, Maine 1943 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Tremont, Southwest Harbor, Cranberry Isles, Long Island, Hancock, ME
Beautiful, antique map of Swan Island, Tremont, Southwest Harbor, Cranberry Isles, Long Island, Maine and the surrounding islands of Hancock County. This is an authentic 1943 edition, 1974 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what the Maine Coast looked like over 170 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.
