Description: USCS Coast Survey Chart Potomac River, Sheet 4 Indian Head to Georgetown 1862 A striking nautical chart showing the section of the Potomac River from Indian Head to Georgetown. This is sheet 4 of a 4-sheet set of the Potomac River. The chart shows bathymetry, aids and hazards to navigation, points, inlents, rivers, islands, terrestrial vegetation, farmlands, roads, capitol buildings, places, bays and harbors, and bearings. Also shown are information on soundings, bottom types, light houses, light vessels, tides, and sailing directions. IMPORTANT NOTE: All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them.
