1899 Map of Philadelphia - RARE - 22nd Ward - 5th Street to Chestnut Hill Bridge

Description: Up for sale is a LARGE, authentic, antique map of a small set of blocks in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This map has property specific detail of the area between 5th Street and the Germantown & Chestnut Hill Bridge and extends from Wingohocking Street to Somerville Avenue. This 1899 map is Plate 27 from the Atlas of The City Of Philadelphia - 22nd Ward - From Actual Surveys and Official Plans by George W. and Walter S. Bromley, Civil Engineers. Published in 1899 by G. W. Bromley and Co., Philadelphia. This map measures approximately 30 1/2 x 20 1/2 inches, including the border area. The map has fantastic coloring to it and is a great period street map, listing factories, churches, public schools, property owners, railroads, etc. of the time. Excellent, detailed and interesting period map of the City of Philadelphia. It is blank on the reverse side and it is not matted nor framed, being sold as a single sheet as shown in the main picture. Maps this early and showing this much detail of the streets of Philadelphia are VERY SCARCE. The map has lots of color coding to represent various attributes (white/stone building, pink/brick building, yellow/frame building, if it looks like an envelope/a stable or shed, and black & white dotted/green house etc.. ). It shows fire hydrants, water mains, sewage lines, lot dimensions and house numbers. The map is generally in Very Good condition. There is some wear and browning along the edges. There is a crease down the middle where it was originally bound. There is heavier staining along the bottom and top edges near the middle crease. There are creases in the corners. Other dings here and there, as well. This map is a great piece of Pennsylvania history and it will look very nice when framed. Please note that while I have included pictures of the front board of the Atlas, the Title Page and the Explanations page from the Atlas this map was taken from, they are NOT included in the sale, as they are reference pieces to determine authenticity for the other maps. I would be happy to include a copy if requested. Please see my store for other great items. Inventory R-27
