This high decorative 1832 pictorial map of Mount Desert Island, and vicinity, was drawn and published by Luther S. Phillips. The map covers the main coast from Surry to Dyer Neck, including Mount Desert Island, Long Island, Bartlett Island, Gouldsboro, Winter harbor, Oak Point, and the Schoodic Peninsula. An inset map in the lower right detaisl the 1667 explorations of Samuel de Champlain. The map mimics 18th century cartographic conventions with elaborate cartouche work, sailing ships, a compass rose, and decorative border work. A description of Mount Desert Island is incorporated into the border art that surrounds the map. This map is uncommon and we have found only two examples listed in the OCLC.
