Description
Here, we offer a vintage, 1867 color map of Cortlandt, New York. Cortlandt is a town in Westchester County, New York, United States, located at the northwestern edge of the county, at the eastern terminus of the Bear Mountain Bridge. The town includes the villages of Buchanan & Croton-on-Hudson. Cortlandt is also known for its Revolutionary War history, specifically the location of the strategic Kings Ferry between Stony Point & Verplanck's Point, which George Washington's army used to cross the Hudson on its march to Yorktown, Virginia, in 1781. John Trumbull's full-length oil portrait of Washington at Verplanck's Point exists in two versions. As for exactly what Atlas it was removed from, I do not know. I do guarantee it's authenticity! I've a handful of maps from the same Atlas. Measuring 14-5/8" x 17-5/8". Not without it's blemishes, as seen in the photographs. Will be shipped in the flat, within a pair of sturdy cardboard backers 1867, Cortlandt, New York, Westchester County, Color, Map, Hudson River, Peekskill, Suttons Mills, 15" X 18", Historical, Wall Hanging
