Good grief! I have that booklet (but 2nd impression, 1968) and the
rest of the series published around that time!

How many were there? I've got six, but I don't know whether it's the
full set:
Sixty Years of the Bakerloo (1966)
Sixty Years of the Piccadilly (1966)
Sixty Years of the Northern (1967)
100 Years of the District (1968)
Seventy Years of the Central (1970)
The Metropolitan Line - A Brief History (1972)


Got all them, plus M A C Horne's "A Short History" booklets of the
Central and Northern lines. All mine, apart from Seventy Years of the
Central, appear to be second impressions printed a year or two later
than the dates above.

Didn't all these become "The line Line A Brief History" in the 1970s?

Eg, "The Northern Line A Brief History" (1973) contains what was in
"Fifty Years of the Hampstead Tube" and "Sixty Years of the Northern".

The latest equivalents seem to be "The line Line An Illustrated
History", eg I've got the Bakerloo Line, published 2001.
