Description

1882 Jamaica with Pedro Bank, Cuba, and San Domingo Maritime Navigation Chart

This detailed 1882 maritime chart showcases Jamaica, Pedro Bank, and parts of Cuba and San Domingo (Dominican Republic). It was designed for sailors navigating the West Indies, providing accurate coastal outlines, depth measurements, and important navigational details such as compass roses and harbor locations. The chart’s precision and accuracy made it invaluable for maritime travel and trade during the late 19th century.

This map is a significant historical piece, offering insight into maritime navigation of the time, making it an ideal addition for historians, collectors, and anyone with an interest in Caribbean maritime history.

I personally digitally restore and clean up the original scanned image, adjusting colors, exposure, and fixing blemishes to produce a high-quality print. However, to maintain the vintage poster look and historical accuracy, I retain some imperfections.

What Makes My Prints Different

Sure, you might find similar images elsewhere, but not all prints are equal. I use a high-end lab with professional photo printers, high-quality archival inks, and acid-free archival Lustre paper—a premium, heavier paper offering vibrant colors with a fingerprint-resistant, glare-free matte finish. Prints are available in all popular sizes; select your size when ordering. Please note that listing photos are low resolution, but high-resolution files are used for printing. Prints are unframed; frames shown are for illustration purposes only.

Shipping

Prints are carefully packaged to prevent damage during transit. They are shipped flat in a rigid box or rolled in a sturdy mailing tube, depending on size. Please refer to the shop’s policies for additional shipping information.
