Never visited in person but this store is an online-shopping paradise. (I hope to visit someday.) Endless inventory of fascinating historic maps, prints, charts, you name it. Irresistible for those of us who know what a unique, thoughtful gift these items make. Most affordable antiques you can find! Service is extraordinary, everything carefully packaged and delivered super fast. Warning: browsing is addictive. Set aside plenty of time.

I love this shop and always look forward to coming in and planning out my next map purchase. My family and I have shopped here for years and each piece is so special. Last year, I was not in the area and I had to call them and make a custom order for a wedding gift. Shoutout to Perri for discussing all of the details with me over the phone and making great suggestions. It came out beautiful!

If you're a map fan, you need to check this place out. Large selection of whatever maps you may be searching for - from a Cape Cod map as eye candy for your cottage/beach house to rare, old, authentic maps of faraway lands - Maps of Antiquity has it all!

The owner is an expert in costal ecosystems in Cape Cod, and also has a keen eye for excellent maps. We bought a couple of late 1800's maps of the Maghreb last year, and while we didn't purchase them, there were some excellent specimens from the Persian Gulf dating back to the early 19th century on our last visit. If you know maps, you'll know that these are indeed rare finds.

Prices are fair, authenticity is guaranteed, and service is phenomenal. Set your navigation app & ogle some real maps!
