Scope and Contents

Many antiquarian map and book dealers offer some Ordnance Survey items in their general sales catalogues. Some of them issue occasional catalogues focussing almost entirely on Ordnance Survey or related material. This archive holds a small collection of such specialist catalogues, in particular five from the Dorking bookseller John Coombes (a founder member of the Charles Close Society), together with other lists issued by amateur collectors (1976-2000).
