Description: 1851 USCS Coast Survey Chart Point Pinos California Map, Monterey Bay Chart of Monterey Bay and Point Pinos, California. The overview map shows Monterey Bay from Point Santa Cruz to Point Pinos. The City of Monterey City is shown along with the rocky promenance of Point Pinos. The detailed map lays out the observatory, topography (hachures), some roads, rocky promenance detail and the three proposed lighthouse sites along with the range of visibility. The Point Pinos Lighthouse would eventually be built in 1855 and is today the oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the western coast of the United States. IMPORTANT NOTE: All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them. Please be aware. 1851 USCS Coast Survey Chart Point Pinos California Map, Monterey Bay YEAR PUBLISHED: 1851 CARTOGRAPHER/MAPMAKER: U.S. Coast Survey, Bache, A. D.
