Genuine Antique Map

1880

Maker: Justin Winsor / The Heliotype Printing Co.

Fascinating antique map of Boston before the fill and after, by the Heliotype Printing Company. This map was published in the Memorial History of Boston 1630-1880 edited by Justin Winsor and published by James R. Osgood and Company. Boston was originally known as the Shawmut Peninsula before the fill. The major of the landfill took place between 1630 - 1880. This map includes a color key at the lower right under the title and also a key to the letters and figures on the back. Original printed color. Good to very good antique condition with some stains at the paper edges that can be hidden when framing. Approx. 9 x 11.5 inches to the neatline.
