There is fine topographical detail inland. Above Cape Cod are two views of Nantucket's coast, an inset diagram of charts, a key to the abbreviations used on the chart, tables on the tides, currents, and lighthouses and beacons, and other relevant information. Engraved by A. Sengteller, G. McCoy, W. Phillips, and E.A. Maedel. Issued in September 1888 and printed August 21, 1890, according to a stamp below the bottom neatline.
