Maker: Coulton Waugh.
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 mor 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. Very good antique condition, with overall toning, some minor wear at the paper edges that can be hidden when framing. The paper appears darker in person than in the photos- see last photo for better color balance. Map measures approx. 18 x 25 3/4 inches to the neatline - edge of printed map.
