- (chart) From Penobscot Bay to Kennebec Entrance, Maine #105. United States Coast and Geodetic Survey. Edition of October 1877. Printed February 1890. Scale 1/80,000. Bright, very large detailed original Coast Survey chart includes all of the coastline from Tennants Harbor south to the Kennebec River. Chart includes all Life-Saving stations in service at the time. Also shown are all lighthouses, buoys, towns and features and more. The area has numerous shoals and bars, hundreds of islands, and the entire area is exceedingly treacherous. Included on the chart are bearings, tides and currents for the area, and soundings, and more. Chart is in good condition, overall light soiling, light age toning, light edge wear and soiling, a few very small edge tears. Buoys are highlighted in red and black, some lights with red arc denoting channel. Rare early chart. These very early coastal maps are most desirable for display and bring a premium. Wonderful for matting and framing. (VG+). $34.
