$85

This USGS 30-minute topographic sheet was first published in 1900 and printed in 1913; the sheet has been kept in excellent condition, never folded and smooth and flat on thick stock, with a flawless map area. Drawn from an 1885 and 1886 field survey engraved in 1900 under geographer Henry Gannett, it covers a broad stretch of southern New Jersey across Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cumberland, Gloucester, and Ocean counties, with the quad area taking in Vineland, Hammonton, Berlin, Winslow, and Vincentown among others. Surveyed well before the modern highway system, it records the overland travel routes, rail lines, and early placenames of the region as they stood at the turn of the century, and comes from an uncommonly well-preserved collection. The reverse carries printed USGS reference material from the 1913 printing.

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.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Rancocas 30-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, 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 1885 and 1886.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the USGS 30-minute series have been out of print for many years. They have never been common and original prints are increasingly difficult to find. For areas where the 30-minute map was produced, it is usually the first large-scale survey done by the USGS for that area. These are a valuable historical record, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent series’ and editions.
