South Cleveland Tennessee Hopewell USGS Topographic Map 1966

$47

This USGS 7.5-minute topographic map is a 1965 edition printed in 1966, in very good condition on thick stock and never folded. Covering a 7-by-9-mile area in Bradley and Hamilton counties about 23 miles northeast of Chattanooga, the quad takes in the southern side of Cleveland along with the communities of South Cleveland and Hopewell. Compiled from a 1943 through 1965 field survey by the Tennessee Valley Authority, it reflects the mapping work that accompanied TVA’s long presence in the Tennessee Valley. The sheet was only lightly handled and shows a library stamp in the bottom right collar and extending into the extreme southeast corner of the map area.
