Anything else??

My 25-year-old Navigation Chart by
Duncan M. Fichet (in
Duncan green) shows
three seaplane landing strips.
The year 1949 was approximately when
Wolfeboro's Little Airport had first set out its dock and seaplane ramps on Winter Harbor. Your map could still precede that year.
I'm not sure "resolution" would help this old computer, as determinations of colors—
especially blue—have gone missing...see what I mean?
The New England Map Co. could still be in business, as one is listed in the Yellow Pages—online:
