DESCRIPTION

Chart of Grand Bay Including the Entrance of Horn Island Pass to the Mississippi River. Mapping from Round Island Light House and Horn Island on the west in Mississippi to Grand Batture Island, Grand Bay, and Point Aux Pines and Isle Aux Herbe on the east in Alabama. Some coastal detail is shown along with some bearings with depth soundings from the Gulf of Mexico.

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.
