More Information

A rare and very attractive plan of Brooklyn, New York drawn in 1867 by Samuel Edward Stiles. Designed for Stiles’ important History of Brooklyn , this map is based upon surveys of Brooklyn originally taken in 1766 and 1767 by Bernard Ratzer. Includes much of modern Brooklyn including parts of Red Hook, Gowannas, Fort Greene, Williamsburg, part of Greenpoint, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill Carrol Gardens, Park Slope, Prospect Height, Clinton Hill and Greenwood. Offers superb detail to the level of individual buildings, many of which are numbered and labeled in the interesting chart to the left of the map proper. Interestingly this chart notes both 18th century building locations as well as their 1867 street locations – many of which are consistent to modern times. Includes the Van Dyke Mansion, the Seabrings Mansion, the Jacob Bergen House, the Frederick Lubbertse House, the Vechte-Cortelyou House, the Teunis Tiebout House, the Michael Bergen House, the Cowenhoven House, the Jorse Janse de Rapalje House, the Jacob Ban Brunt House, the Duffield House, the OldChurch, the De Bevoise House, the Old Brick House, the Swertcope House, the Livingston Distillery, the Old Brouwer Mill, Brouwer Mill, the Governor’s Colden House, the Bamper House, the Middagh House, Bergan’s Hill, a Coporration House, Cedar Tree Hill, Koeties Kill and Gravers Kill. Drawn by Edward Stiles and engraved by Hayward and Company of 171 Pearl Street, New York.

What our customers are saying

★★★★★

I purchased an historic map, 16x24 inch. It is beautifully printed on heavy stock. The lettering, colors, and details of the map are crisp and easy to read. I am highly satisfied and would certainly purchase from Historic Pictoric again!

Ordered the Pan American Midway print to fit a lovely thrift-store gilded frame. I love showing off Buffalo's rich history and this is a pretty entertaining photo from 1901. Prompt shipping. Sturdy packaging.

I received my print within days of ordering, and it arrived well packed in a mailing tube. The print is high quality and exactly as advertised. I will use Historic Pictoric again in the future!

Excellent product. Great fidelity in reproduction of the original. Fine/minute details were sharp, colors were vibrant, and thickness, texture and overall feel and quality of the paper were excellent. Very satisfied with my purchase.

I have purchased six maps from Historic Pictoric. I find the quality to be excellent. Their customers service is also excellent. Outstanding! I called to exchange a few for different sizes and I could not have asked for a better experience.

★★★★★

The original map I ordered lacked some of the detail that I had hoped for, but they responded with several more map possibilities to choose from. Excellent service- a far step beyond what anyone expects from online purchases.

I am a owner of 5 maps from Historic Pictoric. From Okinawa, 1945, Europe 1940-1945 battle maps. Now they’re helping me with the battle of Gettysburg. These maps are so much superior to the map on a page in a book. I have framed two of them.

Great heavy paper quality and clarity of my nautical map. Will be a great addition to our home close to the beach!
