Scope and Contents note

From the Sub-Series:

49 color maps, on sheets 51 x 112 cm or smaller, folded to 25 x 11 cm. Based on British Ordnance Survey maps. Covers England, Scotland, and Wales in 14 numbered sheets; includes multiple editions of all sheets. In this group, Michelin inconsistently assigned numbers to maps and their front covers, but in this finding aid, these have been reordered as sheets 2-15. For example, the 1926 edition of the Scottish Lowlands map is numbered on its front cover as 104, on the face of the map as 4B, and in this finding aid as [4]. Front or back covers of all sheets include a series index map for the variously titled Michelin map of Great-Britainor Michelin Tyres map of Great Britain. For another series index map, issued separately as sheet 130, see Series 2, Europe, subseries 15, small scale maps of British Isles: Great Britain and Ireland. Though planned for publication as a 15-sheet map, sheet 1, covering northernmost Scotland, was apparently never issued. Issued to replace the earlier Michelin series covering Great Britain on smaller sheets numbered 1-22. The earlier and smaller sheets are arranged separately in Series 1, Europe, subseries 10, regional maps of British Isles, Great Britain and Ireland, approximately 1914-approximately 1925, sheets 1-31.
