London Historical Set of five maps in the Cassini Historical Series reproducing old Ordnance Survey mapping of England & Wales at 1:50, 000. The set consists of the four Cassini maps showing the capital between 1805 & 1948, & has as a bonus map a reproduction of Stanfords street plan London at six inches to one mile from 1891. The four Cassini maps cover roughly the area of the present day Greater London rather than following the format of rest of the series which is designed to correspond to the current Landranger maps. Mapping is identical to the sheets covering West & East London (Nos. 176 & 177) but simply adjusted to present most of the city rather than divide it in two. The reproduction of the Stanfords map covers a smaller area, as indicated in our coverage scan. In the rest of the series old historical maps have been combined so that the sheet lines correspond to the current Landranger series & reproduced with the scale changed from one inch to one mile to 1:50, 000. Most locations are covered by three separate maps, showing how the area has changed over the decades, with selected major cities also presented in a fourth edition. Old Series: the first detailed survey mapping dating for most areas from the first half of the 19th century, in black & white & with relief shown by hachuring.
