Great prop
I am one of the prop vendors for the stage show HAMILTON. I needed a map of this area and vintage as part of a pair of rolled maps that are tied together and reside on the set during the second act. This map was on a nice heavy paper and fit the bill perfectly.

This map's date is actually 1827 (it is the second state of this particular sheet). No matter - it is a par excellent reproduction of this important map.

These maps are very helpful in identifying property ownership of farms from the mid 80s to present. I have a ten year project of photographing all the barns in Lake County, Illinois and researching the farm ownerships. I just wish they had more years.

Great Map - NYNE0003

Inaccurate description - CTCO0002
While I love the map itself, the actual dimensions of the map were inaccurate, and did not reflect the additional border, and I was thus unable to use the frame I purchased to frame it. While the map itself was the advertised 23 x 31.57 inches, the entire poster was 24 x 33 5/8 inches. And accurate description of the real dimensions would be really helpful.

They had what I wanted, at a fair price. I got it when they said I would, and it was everything they said it was, as well as what I expected. The only complaint I have is they had too many maps that I wanted!! I want them all, just don't have the room for them! I trusted them and so can you!

"Hi, The map arrived today and it's fabulous. Such a quality reproduction. We have an original at the Point Pleasant Historical Society but it's too fragile to use or even to copy. This is perfect for the museum. I'll keep your address around in case members want copies for their own collections."
Thanks again.

"Mr. Walters, First of all let me say that I've never been treated with such kindness and concern by an Internet seller. I personally find it refreshing to know that a merchant is committed to customer service. Sadly, it is a rare thing these days, and it almost surprises us when we see it."
Thank you!
Respectfully,
Larry Bosley

"I just received the map. It arrived in great shape as a result of a fine packing job. Thanks for the prompt service. The item is far better than I imagined. As an Atlantic City historian. I'll have many uses for it."

Diana Andrews

"These maps are fantastic......Sorry I got so concerned, they certainly were worth waiting for. I've already found some places to go that aren't on current maps of the areas. Thank you for making these available and at a reasonable price"
Cindy

"Mr. Walters, Thank you so much for working with me regarding the map purchase and thank you for your honesty. Your ethics are rare. I will definitely recommend anyone and everyone that I know is looking for old maps, and I may talk you up so much that some of my neighbors may want a map or two also. Once again, thank you for your efforts, I am looking forward to receiving the maps."
Very best regards,
Mark Cloyd

"You are so wonderful! I bought the map(s) for neighbors as gifts and and wanted to buy more than 2! I can now frame all of them and give them out !! Copperopolis is a historical little copper mining town and we have cabins on the lake there. We are all very interested in the history of the town and I thought the maps would make nice gifts! Now that you've heard my story, I hope you know how much I appreciate your generosity and will buy more maps in the future. I am going to check to see if you have my home town of Danville, Ca.
Thanks!! You made my day!!"
Sincerely,
Sheryl Martinovich

"HI Jarrod, Those are the best maps I've ever seen, Excellent detail and will serve me well for research. I'm going to pass your business to friends who already want maps, So they will be contacting you soon.
Thanks a million, "
Paul

"Received the map today, and it's a beauty. My 90-year-old father-in-law was county manager of Solano County for many years, and has lived here in Fairfield since 1957. He'll love this map of Fairfield-Suisun back when the railroad still ran through, there were no freeways, no Travis AFB, and most of the town was still "out in the boonies" agricultural land. I'll be checking back for your maps often!
Thanks!"
Joy Wow

"I just got them today...I really am impressed. It is amazing the detail you got on such an increase. I am gonna as you say "show them off" and I will get back to you."
Tony


"Hi, WOW! Your items are really and absolutely better than described. I own land in Tennessee, Florida, Colorado and Navajo County Arizona. You have really reproduced some beautiful maps.
Absolutely astounded."
