One-inch Fifth Edition map of England and Wales : small sheet series, 1931 - 1939
Scope and Contents
Maps.KGM 11.1 = Relief edition ; Maps.KGM 11.2 = Coloured edition ; Maps.KGM 11.7 = Special District (Relief) maps. Most of the maps were stored in large slip-cases made by Guy Messenger made out of cardboard (sometimes recycled corn-flake cereal boxes) and tape or sticky-back plastic (usually black), but only samples of these boxes have been retained. Maps were listed by Map Department staff in May 2019 and sheet titles are taken from the cover (unless absent in which case they are taken from the map).
