Buyer's premium:

This framed map depicts Windermere Lake as surveyed in July 1889. Executed in a functional cartographic style on cream-toned paper, the map details the lake’s contours, depths, and surrounding landmarks. The scale is noted as “3 INCHES TO A MILE,” and contour lines indicate heights above sea level. A partial inscription in the lower margin possibly reads “BORWICKS W.MERE LTD. BOAT BUILDERS.” The map is presented under glass in a plain, light brown wooden frame. Overall age-related paper toning and slight waviness are apparent. The frame is generally intact but has a retail price tag adhered to the upper left corner.


Condition report:

The map shows age-related toning and slight waviness, consistent with its age. The frame is intact with minor wear and a retail sticker. Overall good condition.
