Framable Map of St. John

[DiverDrew]

When we were down in St. John last year some of the gift shops had 9"x11"-ish antique style maps of St. John suitable for framing.

I would like to get one for my wife for Christmas and all I can find online are maps of the entire USVI.

Anyone bought one of these online? If so, what's the name of the site.

Thanks!

I don't have the answer for you, but I do have a suggestion. Try asking Ruth at St. John Spice. Even if she doesn't carry them, she may know of someone who does. Good luck!

Another idea for you: John and I have the National Geographic map of St. John mounted and framed in our study. Of course, it's a lot bigger than 9x11!

We have several maps on our store that may fit the bill for you:

<a href="http://www.caribmart.com/virgon.html">Antique map of the Virgin Islands</a>

<a href="http://www.caribmart.com/usnatpar.html">St. John National Park Map</a> (folded)

<a href="http://www.caribmart.com/virisnavmap.html">Navisat map of the Virgin Islands</a>

<a href="http://www.caribmart.com/uviismap.html">Frankos map of the US Virgin Islands</a>

None of these are St. John only, but they are all great maps.

When we went down last time we bought an "antiquey looking" map of St. John at one of the stores in Mongoose Junction, though I can't remember which one. Here's the website for the Junction :

The map we got is about 11x17, with lots of calligraphy kind of writing on it naming all the bays, main roads, points of interest. The website lists phone numbers and info, perhaps that will help.
Great and thoughtful gift idea for your wife!

We looked for the map store in Mongoose Junction (my husband loves to browse through there) and were told they moved to The Marketplace.

I love the antique one from Anthony's store.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I'd seen the antique style map that Anthony has. I was hoping to find one of just St. John as I have previously given my wife framed maps of St. Lucia and Vieques, other islands we've visited.
