Product description
Ever wondered what Underground maps used to look like, before Harry Beck famously created the modern 'circuit' map of the Underground? Well, wonder no more!
Here's a delightful and unusual vintage map of the London Underground E. G. Perman in 1928, with London's roadways, parks and landmarks overlaid.
You might be a bit surprised at just how many underground railway stations had already been built by 1928! Most of the central London stations are already here: Covent Garden, Piccadilly Circus, Hyde Park Corner, Knightsbridge, etc.
This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, work leaving or housewarming gift for someone who has a keen interest in the London Underground and the railways of London.

If you order a personalised map, I will get in touch after you order to find out what short message you would like added to your map.
My personalisations perfectly blend into the map and look like they've been there for hundreds of years. This will make your map totally unique.
