Copperplate

This is one of series of maps produced by W.H. Smith and Son by lithographic transfer from Bartholomew's "Imperial map of England and Wales According to the Ordnance Survey". The maps were sold at 1 shilling each from Smiths chain of railway station boookshops. They were based on the original surveys of the Ordnance Survey, but was issued at a reduced scale of 4 inches to the mile.The map is linen-backed (but not dissected), and folds into card covers which bear the quoted title. The map itself bears a slightly different title, namely "Environs of Dover and Watering Places of Kent". Original wash colour.
