Branford Cheshire North & New Haven Connecticut 1893 LI Sound antique map detail

Cheshire, North Haven, Borough of Branford

(United States, Connecticut)

Issued 1893, Boston by Hurd

Detailed large antique lithographed map with original hand color.

Shows numerous individual features, such as schools, boarding house, churches, railroad stations, Town Hall, several cemeteries, Swedish church, Opera House, Masonic Hall, Branfod Point Hotel, road names, etc.

As originally issued long ago, an actual antique/ vintage printed sheet of paper more than 100 years old, not a modern copy or reprint of a map.

Sheet remains well preserved, keeping in mind it is not modern or new, so minor flaws to paper unworthy of specific mention are sometimes to be expected. Some light age wear or surface spotting/ soiling, all of which is hopefully visible within the pictures

The paper sheet could show various minor signs of age, but if we are offering it for sale, you can be 100% certain it is entirely worthy of ownership by even the most discerning collector or dealer.

Paper and image remains overall clean & sound. Old maps & prints often display small minor repairs on the back, could have uneven blank margins, might have extraneous fold-lines or other small minor age flaws which do not detract from the visual appeal or value. Condition is carefully considered in arriving at our price. If the map has a fold-line down the middle, it is original to the map.

Attractive and desirable old vintage antique map entirely worthy of hanging for display.

A cartographic depiction captured in a manner entirely unique to this era.

Sheet measures c.  19 3/8"  x  14 3/4" .

Printed area measures c. 17 3/4"  x  12 3/4"

[note: we grade conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws.].
