Map’s outlined with color too. Map is not a reproduction. Map’s features include: streets, rivers, mountains, oceans, seas, lakes, forests, towns, cities, capitals, counties, countries, parks, railroads, cemeteries, rail lines, hospitals, markets, and R.R. depots. Features vary from map to map. A valuable research tool for local historians and scholars because antique maps depict old towns, villages, roads, rail lines, regions, and even countries which no longer exist or have been renamed.
