Item description from seller

A map of the road from London to Edinburgh. Sale 3 miles to an inch. Undated, but I estimate it to be from the 1930s. This is an unusual map in that, when opened out, it is 3000cms (3.00 meters .10 feet) long and 18 cms (7 inches) wide. It then concertina-folds to a size of 10 x18 cms (4.25 x 7.25 inches) between stiff card boards. The blue cloth covering the boards is starting to fray, but overall, the item is in good condition and quite sturdy. The green shading alongside the route marked on the map is, it says, .'an attempt has been made to show the contour of the main Edinburgh to London routes by means of a green line of varying width. The vertical scale is ten times the horizontal'.

Store description

Morgan the Maps is the online business of a retired, now-elderly bibliophile gradually dispersing all of the various books and maps that have built up over a lifetime of different interests. Not a collection as such, more an accumulation of items, most of which I am recently rediscovering in a garage full of boxes of books. Interests over the years have been in the development of road, canal and rail transport in the UK over the last 300 years, and the industrial revolution. These topics as they have affected South Wales has been a particular focus. My relocation to the Adelaide Hills in South Australia for the last 50 years did not diminish those early interests. All items are located in the Adelaide Hills.
