Question: Is THIS green chart the same as the Duncan (Green) chart..except with a new name..?
I believe you have guessed correctly NoBozo. The map you are looking at is the predecessor of the Duncan Press Inc green map of today, now owned by Sally Fichet from the Duncan Web Site, our owner page - the niece of Duncan Fitchet the designer and publisher of the first "green maps".

From Duncan Press Our Advisors page: "Mildred Beach for decades was the administrator of the Lakes Region Association and a lifelong friend of Dunc's. During his lifetime, Dunc's charts were distributed exclusively by Mildred, working for the Lakes Region Association. Mildred has advised Sally on her recollections of Dunc's guiding principles, as well as opening many doors to other sources around the region."

Hope this helps satisfy your curiosity.
