| $240.00 | Lloyd--Nancy | 1985-Pictorial-Map-of-Oregon-Coast-Shipwrecks-and-Lighthouses-by-Nancy-Lloyd | Illustrated 1985 map of shipwrecks and lighthouses along the Oregon coast, drawn by Nancy Lloyd and published by the Columbia River Maritime Museum, Astoria. Coverage extends from the Columbia River entrance south to Brookings and the California border, with coastal towns, bays, and headlands identified along a narrow strip of pale green land.
<br><br>Numerous wrecks are named and dated in the adjoining Pacific Ocean, often with brief notes identifying vessel types or lives lost. Drawings of sailing ships, steamers, and stranded vessels accompany the entries, with a particularly dense concentration near the Columbia River mouth. Illustrated lighthouses include Tillamook Rock, Heceta Head, Umpqua River, Cape Arago, Coquille River, and Cape Blanco, with dates noted beside them.
<br><br>A decorative title panel contains a sailing-vessel vignette and the museum's imprint, while a small locator inset places Oregon between Washington and California. A printed note specifies that wreck locations are approximate and that only major shipwrecks are shown. Combining maritime history with coastal geography, the map presents a visual record of Oregon's shipwrecks and the lights established along its shores. |
