The Story Behind the Print
This 1967 nautical chart of Patuxent River and Vicinity, Maryland, is U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey chart 553, drawn on a Mercator projection at 1:40,000 with soundings in feet at mean low water. Muted khaki land, finely contoured and webbed with country roads, surrounds pale blue shoals and white deep water, with grey compass roses.
Lettered on the sheet are Solomons Island, Benedict, Broomes Island, St. Leonard, Prince Frederick, Lexington Park and Madison, with the Patuxent River, Chesapeake Bay, Little Choptank River and Honga River. Cove Pt, Drum Point, Cedar Pt. and Pt. Patience mark the shore. An inset continues the river upstream to Nottingham.
Printed on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper using fade-resistant giclée printing with archival inks, ensuring your vintage nautical chart will maintain its maritime heritage for generations.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.
