Pub Note:
Map is from Hunter's city atlas adapted to show the lots for sale. A complete record of the purchase of four lots from the Pleasant Hill Land Association by Mr. W.H. Schober in 1887, with a record of installment payments made through 1889, at which time Mr. Schober is given his deed. Schober has marked his lots on the map, as well as another four adjoining lots that were purchased by a friend. This gives some insight into late 19th century urban subdivision methods. The subdivision can be located on J.L. Smith's Driving Map of Philadelphia and Vicinity of 1882, between Linden and Convent Roads on the Delaware River north of the 23rd Ward. Map is folded into dark brown cloth covers 15x10 with "Pleasant Hill Land Association ... " printed in black, and name "W.H. Schober", address "478 N. 5th St.", and number of lots "Four" handwritten in pen on a paste down beige label.
