Hardcover. Zustand: Poor. Folding map of the railways of England and Wales with an inset of the "Principal Railways of Scotland". The map is 71cm x 58cm when opened, dissected into twenty segments and concertina folding into original boards to measure 12cm x 18 cm closed. An additional segment is attached (and folds between the covers to the south-western corner) to display the railways of Cornwall. The map is mounted on linen and the folds are reasonably sound. Both covers, rubbed and fraying at the edges are, currently, still attached but only by the flimsy spine, but the whole item is fragile and in POOR condition. NOTE WELL: the original additional Cornwall segment is missing (and this has been noted by a previous owner in copperplate handwriting on the backing cloth). However, a photocopy of the original segment has been attached and conveys, surprisingly well, the image of the railways on this segment. The pictures tell the story better than I do. Please ask for additional information if required.
