DESCRIPTION

Chart showing Dungeness Harbor, Pt. Angeles or Ediz Spit (Dungeness Spit) in the Strait of Juan de Fuca in the Washington Territory. Shows Indian villages, fresh water sources, salt water lagoon, vegetation and an observatory station. Depth soundings and bottom conditions are also given. Notes to the mariner are also given. This variant contains the Coast Survey Office Emblem.

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.
