Genuine Antique Nautical Chart

1889

Maker: British Admiralty.

 

Antique sailing chart of Tokyo Bay, Japan from 1889 by the British Admiralty. Shows the navigational information for the Gulf of Tokio or Yedo, which is now spelled Tokyo and a great depiction of the City of Tokyo with streets, notable buildings, and Japan's first railway. Although the railroad was opened in 1872, this chart shows it under construction, with a branch from Tokyo extending south and a branch from Yokohama extending north- they would eventually meet to create Japan's first railroad. Includes inset map of Yokohama Bay. All measurements are in fathoms. All bearings are magnetic. Very good antique condition with minor spotting and or staining. Some repaired tears barely visible from front. Slightly darker toning at bottom. Approx. 26 x 38.5 inches **NOTE- because this map requires extra insurance for shipping, an additional charge will appear on your card after your original purchase. If you would like to know what that charge will be, please contact us.**
