Description: Lake Erie Maps & Prints An Authentic Antique Map: Not a Modern Reproduction! Free US Shipping on 5 or More Maps and Prints Description: It is an original vintage map over 75 years old, published in January 1948 by the Army Corps of Engineers, which is stated on the map.

The New York State Canal System is the oldest transportation system in North America, at least in modern times. It began operation in 1825 and continues to be used by some commercial vessels today, although in recent years it mainly serves recreational watercraft along with shore trails for hiking and biking. The system is part of the Great Loop consisting of over 5000 miles of boating routes connecting the Atlantic Ocean with the Great Lakes that is linked by a series of canals including the Champlain, Erie, Cayuga, Oswego and Seneca Canals. This maps shows just a small section of that great network as it was in 1948. The map was created by the Army Corps of Engineers as part of their 1948 US Lake Survey. Size: The image area measures approximately 10 1/2 by 15 inches (26x38cm) on an 11 by 17" page (28x43cm) Condition: Very Good to Excellent, in its original state as published in 1948. Other than very light tonal ageing as expected, it is very clean with strong color and an antique quality that would frame up well, see the pics for more on condition. The pics are of the actual map.
