Antique Wheeling, Illinois 1963 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Cook County, Northfield, Riverwoods, Vernon, Libertyville, Shields IL

Beautiful, antique map of Wheeling, Illinois and surrounding Cook County and Lake County areas. This is an authentic 1963 edition, 1981 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

See what Illinois looked like over 55 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. This map is laminated and 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.

Edition of 1963, printed 1981
