Topographic map of Portland, U.S. as of 1897

This is a kickass topographic map of 1897 Portland, Oregon (click to embiggen).

The original scan can be found here. The copy above is a slightly lower resolution version of the file uploaded to Wikipedia by user EncMstr, who cleaned up the 100+ years of aging ink and paper by color replacements and sharpening.
