Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition. No Need to Ask! Early Maps of London's Underground Railways. Small mark to back cover from removal of old label. Published in association with London Transport Museum. The Underground map has come to represent a distinctive image associated with London. The unified system of today began life as a number of separate companies, beginning with the Metropolitan Railway in 1863. Under the influence of American finance, the first groupings of companies occurred in the early years of the twentieth century and maps showing the different lines as a unified system began to appear. Before the famous Beck diagrammatic map appeared in 1933, maps of the Underground railways were produced in many different styles. Prior to co-ordination of publicity, individual companies would often show their own railway much more prominently than others, sometimes omitting 'competing' lines altogether. This book - a companion volume to Mr. Beck's Underground Map - Illustrates the development of the many attractive and unusual maps used to describe and publicise London's Underground railways before the diagrammatic approach simplified a complicated and expanding system. Illustrated throughout. 80 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
