Description
Beautiful, antique map of the Staunton, Virginia & surrounding Augusta, Highland, Rockingham, Bath & Rockbridge County, Virginia & Pendleton County, West Virginia area. This is an authentic 1886 edition, 1894 print from the U.S. Geological Survey & NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio. See what Virginia looked like over 135 years ago. Lots of intricate details & geological contours. Printed in the very large 30 minute scale, this map covers an immense amount of landscape. Map even has little squares for every town that existed at the time. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then!
