Antique Wilmington, Delaware 1920 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Newcastle County, Delaware City, Christiana, Brandywine, Newport DE

Beautiful, antique map of Wilmington, Delaware and Newcastle County. This is an authentic 1920 edition, 1920 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio.

See what coastal Newcastle County and the Delaware River looked like more than 100 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! 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 this make great gifts.

Edition of 1920, printed 1920
