Beautiful, antique map of Great Pond and surrounding Kennebec County and Somerset County area. This is an authentic 1956 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what Maine looked like over 60 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 buy just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts.
