Preliminary Chart of North Edisto River
DESCRIPTION
A chart detailing the entrance and channels of the North Edisto River South Carolina. Shows the river from White Point to the Atlantic Ocean including various tributaries along the course. Shows Botany Bay Island, Seabrook's Island, Wadmelaw Island, and St. John's Colleton. Numerous soundings and channel directions are shown. This later edition shows a greater amount of inland detail including vegetation, farmland, and waterways.

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. Please be aware.
