Rendered with the Geological Survey’s hallmark precision, this 1971 topographic portrait of Acadia National Park and vicinity captures Hancock County, Maine, at a moment when America was recommitting itself to its great landscapes. At 1:62,500, the map’s shaded relief and closely stepped contour lines translate granite domes, forested valleys, and sculpted shoreline into a richly legible terrain. Executed on the polyconic projection with the 1927 North American Datum, it preserves accurate local shapes across a complex coast—where islands, headlands, and inlets converge. Insets of Isle au Haut and the Schoodic Peninsula complete a cohesive vision of the park’s scattered units, uniting them in one authoritative frame. The result is both a practical guide to altitude and aspect, and an artful evocation of Acadia’s play of light, height, and sea.
The map excels in revealing Acadia’s geologic drama. Cadillac Mountain rises at the center, its summit roads and ridgelines picked out by tightening contours that telegraph slope and exposure. Jordan Pond, flanked by the rounded forms of The Bubbles, appears as a classic glacial basin, while Eagle Lake rests in its own rock-carved cradle. Along the coast, the charting of Otter Cliffs and Sand Beach juxtaposes abrupt granite with an improbable ribbon of sand. Somes Sound, often described as the East Coast’s only fjord-like inlet, cleaves deeply into Mount Desert Island, its drowned glacial valley rendered in exquisite bathymetric-proximate shading along Frenchman Bay. Park Loop Road stitches these scenes together, a scenic thread between rock and surf.
Historically, this map is a benchmark: compiled from mid-century 1:62,500 sheets of 1942, 1943, and 1956, then revised from 1970 aerial photography and field-checked in 1971. It captures the park during a pivotal era of environmental stewardship and outdoor recreation, when accurate, current topography underpinned both preservation and access. Researchers will value how it documents the maturation of route networks such as Cadillac Mountain Road and the Park Loop Road, and delineates signature paths including the Sand Beach Trail. The careful notation of vegetation areas and the Wild Gardens of Acadia reflects a growing public fascination with native ecology. In its layers, one can trace the evolution of cartographic knowledge and the thoughtful balancing of visitation with conservation.
The insets extend the narrative outward to the park’s more remote strongholds. Isle au Haut is presented with rugged clarity—its scalloped coves and maritime approaches set against a spine of elevated interior—conveying why it remains a refuge of quiet trails and austere beauty. The Schoodic Peninsula, Acadia’s sole mainland district, unfurls as a tapering horn of granite meeting the Atlantic, with Birch Harbor and nearby fishing hamlets marking a lived-in coast. Northwest Harbor, Seal Harbor, Little Hunter’s Beach, and other shorefronts are crisply named, each a hinge point between community and coastline. By gathering these dispersed geographies on a single sheet, the map offers a rare, synoptic understanding of the park’s archipelagic identity.
For the collector, this piece stands at the confluence of science and elegance—an exemplar of late-modern USGS craft before the digital turn. Its color palette enhances legibility while honoring the naturalistic hues of forest, rock, and water, and its polyconic geometry ensures that every summit, cove, and contour reads with quiet authority. Beyond beauty, it is a time capsule: Bar Harbor as a gateway, Frenchman Bay as a working and recreational water, trailheads and summits poised for the era’s burgeoning footfall. Whether consulted for its precise topography or admired for its compositional grace, it is an essential document of Acadia’s form, spirit, and enduring allure.

Please double check the images to make sure that a specific town or place is shown on this map. You can also get in touch and ask us to check the map for you.
This map looks great at every size, but I always recommend going for a larger size if you have space. That way you can easily make out all of the details.
This map looks amazing at sizes all the way up to 50in (125cm). If you are looking for a larger map, please get in touch.
The model in the listing images is holding the 16x16in (40x40cm) version of this map.
The fifth listing image shows an example of my map personalisation service.

This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, work leaving, anniversary or housewarming gift for someone from the areas covered by this map.
This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
This map is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The map is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present a map without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas maps and explore the differences between my different finishes.
For something truly unique, this map is also available in "Unique 3D", our trademarked process that dramatically transforms the map so that it has a wonderful sense of depth. We combine the original map with detailed topography and elevation data, so that mountains and the terrain really "pop". For more info and examples of 3D maps, check my Unique 3D page.

Mon cadre standard est un cadre en bois dur noir de style galerie. Il est simple et a un aspect assez moderne. Mon cadre standard mesure environ 20 mm (0,8 po) de large.
J'utilise de l'acrylique super clair (perspex/acrylite) pour le verre du cadre. C'est plus léger et plus sûr que le verre - et cela a meilleur aspect, car la réflexivité est plus faible.
Six couleurs de cadre standard sont disponibles gratuitement (noir, marron foncé, gris foncé, chêne, blanc et or antique). Des encadrements et montages/matelassages personnalisés sont disponibles si vous recherchez autre chose.
La plupart des cartes, œuvres d'art et illustrations sont également disponibles sous forme de toile encadrée. Nous utilisons une toile en coton mate (non brillante), que nous tendons sur un cadre en bois de boîte provenant de sources durables, puis nous 'flottions' la pièce à l'intérieur d'un cadre en bois. Le résultat final est assez beau, et il n'y a pas de vitrage qui gêne.
Tous les cadres sont fournis "prêts à accrocher", avec soit une corde, soit des supports à l'arrière. Les très grands cadres auront des plaques de suspension lourdes et/ou une latte de montage. Si vous avez des questions, veuillez nous contacter.
Voir quelques exemples de mes cartes encadrées et de cartes en toile encadrées.
Alternativement, je peux également fournir de vieilles cartes et œuvres d'art sur toile, sur panneau en mousse, en coton et d'autres matériaux.
Si vous souhaitez encadrer votre carte ou œuvre d'art vous-même, veuillez lire d'abord mon guide des tailles.
Mes cartes sont des reproductions de cartes originales de très haute qualité.
Je recherche des cartes originales et rares auprès de bibliothèques, de maisons de ventes aux enchères et de collections privées du monde entier, je les restaure dans mon atelier de Londres, puis j'utilise des encres et des imprimantes giclées spécialisées pour créer de magnifiques cartes encore plus belles que l'originale.
Mes cartes sont imprimées sur du papier d’archives mat (non brillant) sans acide qui semble de très haute qualité et ressemble presque à une carte. En termes techniques, le grammage/épaisseur du papier est de 10 mil/200 g/m². C'est parfait pour l'encadrement.
J’imprime avec des encres pigmentaires Epson ultrachrome giclée UV résistantes à la décoloration – certaines des meilleures encres que vous puissiez trouver.
je peux aussi faire cartes sur toile, chiffon en coton et autres matériaux exotiques.
