    Description

    A wonderful color example of this US Coast & Geodetic Survey chart of the Golden Gate and the central part of San Francisco Bay, including Alcatraz Island, Angel Island, and Treasure Island (here as Goat Island). Soundings are provided throughout as well as areas of forbidden anchorage.
    The inclusion of information on land is also noteworthy - we can see the development of the Richmond District reaching all the way to the Pacific, while the Sunset and the southwestern quadrant of the city remain mostly undeveloped.
    The map is in good condition. There is discoloration and a residue of some sort on the verso, but the recto (front) is clean and in nice condition. 61 x 52 cm (24 x 20.5 in).
