Antique Enfield, Massachusetts 1908 US Geological Survey Topographic Map – BEFORE Quabbin Reservoir, hotsell Dana, Prescott, Greenwich, Ware, MA
Beautiful antique map of Central Massachusetts before the Quabbin Reservoir was built This.
Beautiful, antique map of Central Massachusetts, before the Quabbin Reservoir was built. This is an authentic 1893 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
This special map includes the lost towns of Enfield, Dana, Prescott and Greenwich.
See what Worcester, Franklin & Hampshire Counties looked like over 110 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time, which is no small feat for how much land this map covers. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then! On the back is a description of topographic symbols and map guide.
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.
Edition of 1908, printed 1908
