DESCRIPTION

Chart of the Sea Coast of Delaware, Maryland, and part of Virginia showing numerous depth soundings, banks, shoals, dangers, and aids to the mariner including detailed notes. Charted from Gargathy Inlet, Virginia to Cape Henlopen and Cape May at the entrance of Delaware Bay. Some inland details of coastal marshes shown.

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.
