Are you looking for that special gift that reflects the heritage of Chester County? What about a gift that you know can't be found anywhere else in the world?
The Chester County Historical Society now has a new poster of West Chester from O.H. Bailey's Birds Eye View of West Chester, Penna., 1874.
The poster is a colored detail of the original hand-drawn map of when the borough had just 6,000 residents and several farms and orchards.
Buildings can easily be distinguished as well as railroads and reservoirs.
This poster makes an excellent gift and, for those interested in an item of local history, it's a must have item.
West Chester 1874 is available now for $20 at the Museum Shop (corner of High and Chestnut Sts, call 610-692-4800).
The Chester County Historical Society Museum Shop also offers a large selection of items made here in Chester County. Each one truly reflects the qualities of Chester County history and culture.
You'll find a large selection of local authors, history books, photographs and craftware.
*******************
You may now purchase the Downtown West Chester Gift Certificates at the Museum Shop. It can be used at any downtown West Chester business.
