What happened to the publication "Nicholson's London Streetfinder"?

Probably now branded as "Collins" (if still published), my 1995
Nicholson Greater London Street Atlas carrying the information "a
division of HarperCollinsPublishers [sic]".

It was much better than the A thru Z.

If you mean an A-Z, anything used to be better but they seem to
improved in more recent years although whoever's name appears in the
big print, the small print usually credits the Ordnance Survey.
