Description
The Evening News London Tube Map & Guide was designed by the London Geographical Institute. The printed map measures 61cm x 50cm. It ran from 1907 – 1910 and was the first to refer to the wider network of Underground Railways as the ‘Tube’ and among the first to apply colour coding for the lines. This map design was later used as a basis for the official London underground railways pocket map in 1912. Closed it measures 13.5cm x 9cm. At 113 years of age, it is a remarkable survivor.
