First Deep Creek Lake Visitors Map

The first Deep Creek Lake visitor’s map?

This 1936 map was made by Frank Corliss, who was in charge of the surveying for the original land acquisition of the lake. Labeled with roads, the businesses along the “strip” on 219 and lot owners, along with the factoid info on the right, it looks a lot like a visitor’s map to me.

Lots of cool details and info on here – stuff that’s long gone and some things that are still here.
