Description
Beautiful, antique "General & Economic Geology" contour map of Kanawha County, West Virginia & surrounding areas. This is an authentic 1913 print from the US Geological Survey & is NOT a computer reproduction. This map is very large & would be the focus of any wall where it is hung. (See coin in bottom left corner to get an idea of the scale.) See what West Virginia looked like 110 years ago. Lots of charming, intricate details & geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time, which is not small feat considering how large this map is. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then! Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful & rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts. Edition of 1913, printed 1913 Dimensions: 42" width x 49" height Condition: Very Good Vintage condition, commensurate with age. This map is in amazing shape for being about 110 years old. Has light wear & folds as-issued, but these will flatten easily & all will read as vintage character when framed. We will happily adjust shipping price for multiple purchases. Map will be shipped folded to preserve quality. Antique Kanawha County, West Virginia 1913 Geological Survey Map - Charleston, Dunbar, Nitro, Alum Creek, Saint Albans, Pinch Sissonville Wv
