Beautiful, antique map of West End area of Portland, Maine before modern development, including an inset of Eastern Promenade. This is an authentic map taken from F.W. Beer's Atlas of Cumberland County published in 1871 and NOT a computer reproduction. See what Maine looked like more than 145 years ago. Lots of charming, intricate details and contours, including streets, parks, buildings, houses, wharves and the names of property owners at the time. Hand colored. Verso is blank. Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Vintage maps such as these make great gifts. This fold-out map is very large and would present nicely. Edition of 1871, printed 1871 Dimensions: 27" width x 33" height ---- Cities, Villages & Points of Interest: Cumberland County, Portland, West End, Oakdale, Parkside, Back Cove, Deering Oaks Park, Back Cove Park, Casco Bay, Eastern Promenade. Condition: Fair or "Very Vintage" condition, commensurate with age. This map is in great shape for being almost 150 years old. Some edge-wear, fold lines and tears, all of which will read as vintage character when framed. (Picture of cover of the atlas is for reference and not included.) ---- We will happily adjust shipping price for multiple purchases.
