US Panoramic Maps from the 1800's

The folks over at b12 Partners led me to a huge resource of historic panoramic maps from the Library of Congress. These 1,726 bird eye view maps (oblique angle) are available here. Many are availble for download in JPEG2000 or MrSid.


Atlantic City, 1880



These maps really make me miss the old days of truely artistic cartography.
