Hand-colored antique Map of Old Cape Cod, The land of Bold Explorers, Heroic Pilgrims, Hardy Seamen, Great Fisheries and Famous Ships by Coulton Waugh, 1930. This charming pictorial map features incredible detail and plenty of Cape Cod charm! On it, each town and village on the Cape is labeled, as well as towns off Cape from Marshfield and Duxbury to Marion. The map also includes lighthouses, notable shipwrecks, the pilgrim's journey from Provincetown to Plymouth, a sea monster, the old man of the sea, and more. The decorative border comprises of small ships at the top and bottom and larger ships framed in a style meant to look like a sailor's valentine. The ornate cartouche is made of the Mayflower and two pilgrims. Good to very good antique condition, this map is affixed to a board and varnished, giving it a classic antique look. It has some minor cracks in the surface on the sides, and a slight water spot at bottom. This map has been recently re-framed with conservation materials, a new black frame, and UV protective glass. Map measures approx. 18 x 25 3/4 inches to the neatline - edge of printed map. Total size with frame is 21 x 29 inches. **Note: we recommend in-store pick up for framed items.
