Antique Yosemite National Park, California 1958 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – Hetch Hetchy, Stanislaus, Toiyabe, Inyo Forest, CA

Beautiful, massive, antique map of Yosemite National Park, including Sierra National Forest, Stanislaus National Forest, Toiyabe National Forest & Inyo National Forest. This is an authentic 1958 edition, 1969 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.

The USGS only printed a small number of these maps centered around specific geological points of interest. The entire National Park is pictured. In a normal USGS map it would be divided into many smaller maps because of its immensity. It is one of the largest maps in my collection—2 1/2 feet by 2 1/2 feet—and is stunning in its presentation and detail since it is still at 1:125000 scale. This map will be the centerpiece and focus of whatever room it is hung in.

See what Yosemite looked like over 60 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house and building 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 1958, printed 1969
