talked to a couple experts and they said the first thing they look for is “Laid Lines” and “Chain Lines” in the paper. That is the grid you see in the paper when held up to a light.

It does have these, which dates to paper (in a good way)

Final update:

I talked to Chris Lane, the map expert from Antique Roadshow, plus someone here sent me info on the watermark “Hamilton Victorian”.
It is a reproduction, probably from around 1940-50’s.
