Beautiful, antique map of Masontown, Pennsylvania & surrounding Fayette & Greene County area. This is an authentic 1901 print from the U.S. Geological Survey & NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio. See what Pennsylvania looked like over 120 years ago. Lots of intricate details & geological contours.
