Antique Fremont, Nebraska 1896 US hotsell Geological Survey Topographic Map – Platte, Elkhorn, Nickerson, Lincoln, Fontanelle Bell Creek Richland NE
Beautiful, antique map of Fremont, Nebraska and surrounding Dodge, Washington, Douglas, Saunders, Lancaster, Sarpy and Cass County areas. This hotsell is an authentic 1896 edition, 1929 print from the U.S. Geological Survey and NOT a computer reproduction.
See what Nebraska looked like more than 125 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! At some point the map was canvas-backed and split into quadrants, perhaps for field work.
Perfect for the historian, map-lover, the curious or just as a conversation starter. Wonderful and rare. Maps such as these make great gifts.
Edition of 1896, printed 1929
