Inman South Carolina Boiling Springs USGS Topo Map 1964
$45
This USGS 15-minute topographic map is a 1961 edition, printed in 1964, and the sheet is in very good condition with only a midsheet horizontal foldline and light age-toning along the right collar. Drawn at 1:62,500 with a 20-foot contour interval, it takes in the upper corner of South Carolina where the state meets North Carolina, with the quad area including Inman, Boiling Springs, Inman Mills, Landrum, and Tryon across Spartanburg, Greenville, and Polk counties. The base survey was completed before Interstate 26 was built, so the map records the road network of this stretch of the Carolina foothills as it stood before that highway crossed it.
In stock
This vintage sheet is a 1961 edition of the Inman South Carolina USGS topographic map. It is an original 62-year-old 1964 United States Geological Survey print in very good 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 Inman 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 1955 through 1961. 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.
