Description

Beautiful, antique map of Niagara Falls, New York & surrounding area on Lake Ontario. This is an authentic 1899 print from the U.S. Geological Survey & NOT a computer reproduction. It is from a Geologic Atlas folio. See what Niagara Falls looked like more than 120 years ago, back when the Erie Canal was the I-95 of its day. Lots of intricate details & geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time. The 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. Maps such as this make great gifts.
