Physical Description	1 map : col. ; 79 x 65 cm . Scale [ca. 1:1,600].
Wall Label	An unusual feature of this colorful and attractively presented real-estate plan is the circular diagram in the center of the map, which indicates points of interest that can be viewed from the Tashmoo Observatory. The diagram also functions as a compass. The plan subdivides West Chop into 188 building lots of various dimensions. Apparently, the scheme to sell those lots was unsuccessful: this part of Martha’s Vineyard remains relatively undeveloped.
