By 1894 interest in the state's mineral and granite resources had grown considerably, and Hitchcock's survey offered the first widely published, systematic picture of Maine's underlying geology.

Because Verrazzano sailed well offshore to avoid shoals near Cape Cod, Gastaldi's map omits the peninsula entirely, compressing the true distance between southern New England and the Canadian Maritimes. \"Terra Nuova,\" or Newfoundland, is shown to the north as a scatter of separate islands rather than one landmass, reflecting Cartier's genuinely fragmented view of the coastline decades before more thorough inland surveys corrected it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn exceptional gift for a serious collector of early Americana, or anyone drawn to maps that mark a genuine historical first rather than a later refinement, since this sheet predates every other New England or Atlantic Canada map in the collection by nearly two centuries. TheMapVault also carries Bowen's 1744 Atlantic coast map and Homann Heirs' 1755 New England and Eastern Canada sheet, both far more geographically accurate but drawing on two hundred additional years of survey work; this 1565 Gastaldi woodcut is valuable precisely for showing how little of the coastline had actually been charted when it was made. It's available unframed in the full range of nine sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TheMapVault","offers":[{"title":"16x20 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833631051,"sku":"SKU2121-16x20","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42x60cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833663819,"sku":"SKU2121-A2","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833696587,"sku":"SKU2121-18x24","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"50x70 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833729355,"sku":"SKU2121-50x70","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (60x84cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833762123,"sku":"SKU2121-A1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x32 inch - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833794891,"sku":"SKU2121-24x32","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"70x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833827659,"sku":"SKU2121-70x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"75x100 cm - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833860427,"sku":"SKU2121-75x100","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84x119cm) - UNFRAMED","offer_id":58587833893195,"sku":"SKU2121-A0","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/2456\/5323\/files\/SKU2121.jpg?v=1790250172"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.themapvault.com\/en-jp\/collections\/maine-maps.oembed","provider":"TheMapVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
