US Coast Survey: San Diego Entrance and Approaches . . . 1853
Title: San Diego Entrance and Approaches . . . 1853 Map Maker: US Coast Survey
Description: A nice uncolored example of the second edition of the US Coast Survey's First mapping of San Diego. This first edition can be distinguished from the second edition by the addition of the official seal of the US Coast Survey in the left of the map on the second edition. The plan of the harbor covers the area from Point Loma and La Playa in the west to Shelter Island, with extensive soundings taken. Point Loma, Balast Point, La Playa, an Observatory, ship wreck and various buoys are noted. Larger inset diagram shows the entire bay. Extensive sailing notes in the upper left corner. One of the earliest obtainable maps of San Diego.
