Additional Information
Often referred to as 'America's Hometown' Plymouth, MA is an iconic city with roots to colonial settlement's earliest vestiges. Plymouth was the first settlement by the Mayflower Pilgrims in 1620, is the oldest municipality in Massachusetts and one of the oldest in America. Some forty miles south of Boston, the town flourished in the late nineteenth century with fishing, rope making, and shipping allowed the local economy to thrive. The Plymouth Cordage Company was eta blushed in 1824 and was the largest rope manufacturer in the world by the end of the nineteenth century.
Bird's eye perspectives bear a unique aesthetic and distinctive style that immediately transports the viewer back in time and creates a link to the past. They were produced as marketing materials for towns and cities to promote notable businesses or buildings and other enticing features. This style of illustration was popular from the latter portion of the nineteenth century until the 1920s. Merchants and residents alike would also display them in a show of civic pride.
Plymouth was the first permanent Western settlement and remains the oldest continually inhabited area in America. Its rich history and distinct culture endure, and perhaps no city looms as large in early American history. While Boston, New York, and Philadelphia experienced population expansion on a large scale, Plymouth remained a small coastal village. But was an essential center in the formative years leading up to the American Revolution, this illustration is an authentic piece of cartographical history.
