Great print of a 1920 Eureka, CA map showing my home back then before it was moved to its current location. Very informative as the level of detail shows details of orientation on the lot and out buildings that I otherwise would never have guessed. A great historical reference. Thanks.

Matthews was a gas boon town with its large population in 1904. It was planned by the railroad and then the gas boom hit, and all the factories moved in. The quality of the maps is excellent and with fast shipping. My family has lived in the area since 1821, so it is nice to see what once was on maps.
