From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henry Wellge (1850-1917) was a lithographer in the United States. He produced panoramic maps.[1][2] He had an office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Some of his maps were published by Norris, Wellge & Co., others by Henry Wellge & Co. or the American Publishing Co.[3]
His view of Bangor, Maine depicts the era when sail and steam power were both in use on the Penobscot River.[4]
