"Olde Cape Codd" map

 20"x 30"

by Breten Bryden, artist/colorist

Personalized just for you!

This listing is for the black and white map. I can also hand color it for an extra charge. Message me for more info. 

This handsome, antique-looking map of Cape Cod and the surrounding area can be personalized just for you or someone of your choice. It has been recreated in the 17th-century look by embellishments of sea monsters, sinking ships, and ethereal characters searching for the new world. This map is a product of the extensive study of the old world maps and charts, as I also hand color authentic antique maps, prints, and nautical charts professionally for customers and dealers all over the world. *This map is decorative only; like the maps of the time, it is not exactly to scale, and "Olde Cape Codd", is how it was spelled in some of the authentic antique maps, but is now known as just Cape Cod.

PERSONALIZATION: It can be personalized with a small icon of a house in the area of choice, and in calligraphy, written next to it- (examples:) 'Jones Estates', "Keller's Cottage", "Barron's Bungalow" etc... or whatever you may choose. It makes an excellent and unique gift for anyone with ties to the Cape and surrounding areas.

The "Olde Cape Codd" map measures 20"x 30" unframed, and it is printed on heavy-weight antique looking parchment paper. It comes rolled and sleeved in plastic, then sent via Priority Mail.
