Arch New Mexico Grulla NWR USGS 15-Min Topo Map 1958 Vintage

$20

This USGS 15-minute topographic map is a 1957 edition printed in 1958, in excellent condition and never folded, with a flawless map area. Covering roughly 14 by 17 miles about 15 miles east of Portales, the quad straddles the New Mexico–Texas line across Roosevelt and Bailey counties and takes in the Grulla National Wildlife Refuge that gives the sheet its name. The refuge protects part of the shortgrass prairie and playa lake country of the Llano Estacado, a wintering ground for sandhill cranes along the state border. Compiled from a 1954 and 1957 aerial and field survey, the sheet shows only light handling and carries an inventory stamp in the collar.

This vintage sheet is a 1957 edition of the Arch New Mexico USGS topographic map. It is an original 68-year-old 1958 United States Geological Survey print in excellent condition.

HOW THIS MAP CAN BE USED
In addition to making a fascinating conversation piece, this sheet would look great in a frame or on display, make a unique and prized gift for anyone interested in this area, be perfect as a reference for genealogy studies or general historical research, or fill that missing piece in your collection. Maps of this vintage are printed on durable stock and are well-suited for outdoor activities and recreation of all kinds, including hiking, backpacking, hunting, rafting and kayaking, backcountry skiing, geocaching, general exploration, treasure hunting, etc.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Arch 15-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1954 and 1957. A reddish tint may be used on this sheet to indicate urban areas where only landmark buildings will be shown. Outside of those areas, all known structures (houses, businesses churches, schools, barns, cabins, etc) are shown.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the 15-minute series for the continental United States are no longer produced or printed by the USGS and original prints are becoming increasingly difficult to find. They are a valuable historical record for an area, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
