USCS Coast Survey Antique Nautical Chart, Map, Cape May Isle of Wight 1866

Description: USCS Coast Survey Antique Nautical Chart, Map, Cape May Isle of Wight 1866 A striking U.S. Coast Survey chart of the entrance to Delaware Bay from Cape May to Isle of Wight, Maryland showing numerous soundings, aids and hazards to navigation, points, rocks, islands, lighthouses, vegetation, water bodies, buildings and properties along with a smal inset chart of Cape Henlpen's Delaware Breakwater. Depicted are Cape May, Cape Henlopen, Rehoboth Bay, Indian River Bay, and Assawoman Bay. IMPORTANT NOTE: All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them.
