This map of the London underground was published shortly before changes were made to the colour coding of the Central and Bakerloo Lines.
Beck’s 1934 passenger map, print code 34-1945 950M, is similar to the third card folder issue of September 1933, and almost identical to that of December 1933 (print code 33-3636). Read more
Beck’s diagram is possibly one of the most innovative and influential designs of the 20th century. First published in 1933, Beck remained directly associated with most iterations of it until 1960, except for a short period when responsibility for revising and updating the passenger map passed to Hans Schleger.
