This black and white, antique coastal survey was made for the United States Coast Survey. The surveys provide notes on important characteristics of the area mapped. The names of harbors, rivers and coastal towns are identified on this map. These charts show areas that have likely undergone significant changes due to modifications and recessions of coastal lands, making them fascinating to anyone interested in local geography and history. This coastal survey, produced in 1853, shows the vicinity of San Francisco Bay with an inset showing San Diego Bay. Some margins are small due to the way the survey was bound.
