It contains a wealth of detail including topographical features, latitude and longitude, counties, cities and villages, routes of old railroads, and more. There are even a few "ghost towns" on this map, no longer in existence today.
This is a guaranteed genuine antique map!
It ships complete with Certificate of Authenticity, documenting source, maker amd date of printing.
Ideal for genealogy or historical research, this map was printed on a single sheet of stock and bound whole in an antique book. There are no folds, creases, stains or marks, and the paper is clean and not brittle. A similar map of Florida is printed on the reverse. Highly suitable for framing (see sample presentation idea at bottom left), this item would look great in your office, den, library, great room or study. It is similar to many of the maps sold in expensive stores, with one important difference: this is an actual antique, NOT a modern reproduction. This map will appreciate in value as time goes by, so be sure to keep it in a safe place. Please ask all questions before placing your bid.
