We are offering a COLOR COPY of a vintage map of U.S.G.S. Evanston Quadrangle, that shows elevation contours & buildings’ outlines of the entire North Shore area, and, also, detailed Lake Michigan Shore with the Mean water level as of 1926.
Even though it officially called “Evanston Quadrangle”, this map shows much more territory: from the Northern part of Chicago [from Loyola University] all the way to Glencoe, and from Lake Michigan Shore to Cicero Ave. & U.S. Route # 41. 
One of our predecessors, Mr. Edgar Rossiter, obtained this map while working on plans for Memorial Park Cemetery in Niles, IL. 
FYI: Mr. Rossiter worked on plans for many other cemeteries: not only in Chicagoland, but, also, in Pennsylvania – we have all drawings.
As all other our maps & plats, this one has some of the surveyor's indexing markings & notes from various surveying projects, completed in the area. 
History of Chicagoland at your fingertips! 
The size is appr. 20.5” x 28”
