Description: | This is a pocket Underground map. It was designed by Harry Beck and issued by London Transport in 1937.
On the reverse, there is an enlarged diagram of the central area of the network. The names of all interchange stations are shown inside large diamonds. This feature was used in the full size poster edition that year. Due to the scale of the pocket map it was impossible to apply this to the entire map.
Beck was unhappy with this modification to his diagram. He particularly disliked that the redundant word 'station' appeared in every diamond. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Printer : Johnson, Riddle & Company Ltd. | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
