- **Event Description**: Join Bob Zaremba, owner of Maps of Antiquity in Chatham, for an illustrated journey through the early nautical charts of Cape Cod and the Northeast. Housed in a historic late-1700s Chatham farmhouse, Maps of Antiquity offers over 15,000 antique maps, charts, and prints, spanning early American maps, hand-colored 19th-century state and country maps, historical prints, and more.

In this talk, Bob will showcase rare and fascinating charts that guided mariners along Cape Cod and the Northeast, explore their history, and share insights from his decades of expertise in antique maps, restoration, and conservation. Navigate the history of nautical charts of Cape Cod from Samuel de Champlain to our own local chart makers George Eldridge and his son George W. Eldridge, of Chatham. Learn about the development of American chart making from after the revolution to the 20th Century. This is a must-see for anyone interested in maritime history, navigation, or the story of early American chart making!
