About this Item

25x16cm, 24pp, 27 plates. With full colour plates illustrating and indexing the various map series. Glued into a brown paper cover, with armorial device printed in blue and red to the front. A useful and comprehensive guide to the OS 'small scale' of maps of the period, covering the various 1-inch series and many other more obscure scales and formats. The plates section is headed 'Specimens and Indexes' - there was another version of the booklet printed without the specimens. No date, but the print code OSO 368 5000 1-35 indicating 1935. (Description written with thanks to the website of the Charles Close Society) Very Good (some minor creasing and bumping to the corners, and a small 2x1cm area of abrasion to the front underneath and not affecting the armorial device).
