Default New book: Underground Maps After Beck by Maxwell Roberts

I've got a copy of the Beck book and it is fascinating. Maps and their
history are 'sexy' at the moment, viz the recent series on BBC. This sounds
like another jump on the bandwagon.

But who on earth is going to examine a collection of virtually identical
London Underground maps, where the only changes over several decades have
been the Victoria Line and the gradual creep of the Jubilee? g, d + r


mode = sad

I've been collecting the freebee maps for about 30 years, try and get one
each time there is a change to the network.
