Vintage Maps of Bangor, Maine, Mt Desert Island

Description: Includes a vintage official transportation map for the Great State of Maine, in the far northeastern corner of the United States, surrounded by Canada and the Atlantic Ocean on three sides. From 1977, it features a road map of the Pine Tree State, covering 31,000 square miles of land and with a fantastic, heavily indented coastline that is an astonishing 3,500 miles long in total, on one side, and a boosterish guide to Down East (Maine’s less official, more popular nickname) entitled “Enjoy the good life in MAINE / offering virtually limitless industrial and recreational advantages”, along with more detailed maps of the state’s major towns (Portland, Bangor-Brewer, Lewiston-Auburn, Waterville-Winslow, Biddeford-Saco, Augusta, Rumford and Kittery) on the other side; and a vintage (sort of) street map of Bangor (Maine’s second city, after Portland) and nearby communities in the Penobscot Valley (Brewer, Hampden, Old Town, Orono) that features a road map of northern & eastern Maine, along with a more detailed map of spectacular Mount Desert Island (home of Acadia National Park) on one side (from Arrow, 1989); an official map & guide for Acadia National Park (the only national park in New England), which occupies roughly half of Mount Desert Island, as well as nearby Isle au Haut and the Schoodic Peninsula on the mainland (from the US Department of the Interior/National Park Service, 1987); and a handy foldout business location map of Mount Desert Island and Acadia National Park, along with a directory of those establishments, which, this being a major east coast tourist destination, include numerous lodging, dining and recreational services (from Ripples Graphics & Publishing, 2000).
