At Muir Way, we believe in providing the utmost quality, design, and value.
We love old maps. Their coloration, typography, legends, notations, and sometimes even outdated place names all have a nostalgic quality that gives them a special beauty. If you share our love for vintage maps, you’ll appreciate this 1883 California Map in our Historic Series.
This map was made by George Cram and originally published in Cram's Unrivaled Family Atlas of the World in 1883.

Museum-quality, 100% cotton, acid-free archival paper that’s rated to last 100+ years.
No pressed wood, no veneer. Every custom frame is handmade from real Walnut.
We individually print each order in our San Diego workshop. Even our paper is sourced from domestic manufacturers.

I'm a native Californian and a history buff, so this is right up my alley. This is from a mere 33 years after statehood, when the bulk of the population lived in the northern half of the state. It's fascinating to see how much has changed since then. (Same comments apply to the 1876 map)

I bought the 1883 California map. Even during the COVID outbreak they processed my order and shipped it to me within the week. I’m really into geography and this map looks great on my wall.
