Description
Beautiful, antique map of Morristown, Tennessee & surrounding Hamblen, Jefferson, Granger, Hawkins, Cocke & Claiborne County area. This is an authentic 1896 print from the U.S. Geological Survey & NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio. See what Tennessee looked like over 125 years ago, before Cherokee Reservoir & Douglas Lake were formed. Lots of intricate details & 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 & map guide are on the front. Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful & rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts.
