Antique Tinley good Park, Illinois 1929 US Geological Survey Topographic Map - Chicago Suburbs, Orland, Bremen, Rich, Frankfort, Goeselville, IL
Beautiful, antique map of Tinley Park, Illinois and surrounding Cook & Will County area south of Chicago. This is an authentic 1929 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what Illinois looked like over 90 years ago. Lots of intricate details and geological contours. Map even has little squares for every house that existed at the time. The USGS cartographers were very thorough back then! good On the back is a description of topographic symbols and map guide.
Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Maps such as these make great gifts.
