These maps were more convenient to use whilst out walking, due to their reduced size, the paper was cloth backed for added strength and protection, The firm had published ‘Reduced Ordnance Maps’ of Scotland, England and Wales at this scale from the 1890s. These maps were progressively revised and updated with new information.An interesting example of mid 20th century cartography, it could be mounted in a frame for display.I aim to get your items to you as quickly as I can.
