Bond Street Station. 1934

LONDON UNDERGROUND – BOND STREET STATION. Map of district within ¼ mile radius of this station. London: Stanford's, [1934].



Decorative map of the area around Bond Street Station including Manchester, Cavendish, Hanover, Grosvenor and Portman Squares. In the 1920s and 1930s, the map publisher and retailer Stanford’s had a contract with the Ordnance Survey and were able to use OS cartographic data to produce maps for London Transport. These included maps for display in specific Underground stations showing the local area within a quarter-mile radius. Print runs were small; the serial numbers on this map indicate that perhaps only 100 copies were printed.



Large chromolithographic poster with inset map of the area around Bond Street Station, printed in 4 colours, 1 sheet (double crown) 755 x 510mm, laid on linen.
