DESCRIPTION

A very nice elongated chart of the Hudson River from Teller's Point to the Mouth, and a part of the East River. The chart shows numerous soundings, cities and towns along the river, and piers and similar features around New York. No inland detail is provided.

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.
