Mount Desert Island is the
largest island off the coast of Maine, and is home to Acadia National
Park. Acadia National Park is one of the United States oldest National
Parks, and the only national park in New England. First established as
Sieur de Monts National Monument in 1916, the area received national
park status in 1919 and was renamed Lafayette National Park. In 1929 the
park was renamed for the last time. From 1915 to 1933 the parks roads
were financed by John D. Rockefeller Jr., who oversaw the construction
of 50 miles of carriage trails, bridges, and two gate lodges. This
beautiful map provides a look at the early days of the island. |

All reproduction prints are printed as "museum quality",
using advanced ink formulas and durable museum quality paper. The
reproduction prints reflect the state of repair of the original conserved
document. Stains and imperfections reflected in the original map
at the time it was collected for conservation are left un-retouched, as
they reflect the character and charm of the vintage original. Some major imperfections, such as dark fold lines have been removed when
possible. Maps are printed as ordered and are not returnable unless
received damaged. |
