Published anonymously at a scale of 1″ to 1000′, this map of York, Pennsylvania provides a comprehensive overview of the city with streets, wards, additions and townships all individually labeled. Accompanying the image is a comprehensive street index and a list of public buildings, markets, schools, fire stations, and railroad stations corresponding to numbered circles.
This particular copy of the map has been customized for use in the Central Engineering Department of the Pennsylvania Railroad and has been dissected and mounted on linen for preservation and convenient storage. Vivid color has been applied by hand to denote property and track ownership throughout the city as of the mid-1950’s.
A custom index has been added below the title to identify the primary railroad operators within the city and additional manuscript notations identify freight stations, passenger stations, train yards, and connecting line destinations.
