Orange Anaheim California Vintage USGS Topographic Map 1970

$36

This USGS 7.5-minute topographic map is a 1964 edition printed in 1970, in good condition on thick stock. Covering a stretch of Orange County southeast of Los Angeles, the quad area takes in Anaheim, Santa Ana, Orange, Tustin, and Villa Park, along with communities such as Lemon Heights and Cowan Heights. The 1964 base captures Orange County during a period of rapid postwar growth, before much of the citrus-and-orchard country gave way to the suburban sprawl the area is known for today. The sheet has been kept in clean shape, with a midsheet horizontal foldline and a light pencilled notation across the northern portion of the map.
