1955 Farrell Pictorial Map of Newburyport, Massachusetts

This is a 1955 Jack Farrell pictorial map of Newburyport, Massachusetts, depicting from Spofford Street and Moseley Pines to Rolef's Lane. Streets are illustrated and labeled throughout. Banners mark Hale House, Central Church, Dexter House, and Old South Church, along with several other locations. Black and white dashed lines trace the Boston and Maine Railroad's route through town. Other dashed lines illustrate city cemeteries. A series of views create the top and bottom border and depict key locations around town, including the Thomas Hale House, the Historical Society, the Swett Illsley House, and the Old South Church.
