I wonder if this is the same version as the one that hangs in Shibley's restaurant. That one's dated June 1911 with a handwritten -12 (as in 1912) added in. Seems to have been authored by W.M. ???? (or similar, I've forgotten) of Moultonborough. It makes for an interesting read, as some island (and other) names have been changed (ie-Sleepers I was Little Rattlesnake). I wish I could remember what I was thinking when I thought "I got to remember this" while looking at it. Guess I'll have to go back and take notes this time.

ps - Seems FLboater wins the prize for oldest lake chart. Anyone got a prize they care to give away ?
