"Geographia" produced several versions of the New Map of England & Wales featuring Ministry of Transport (MoT) road numbers, primarily published during the interwar period. Key editions include a first edition in 1930 and updated, large-scale versions often dated to the 1930s-1940s.
Key details regarding these maps:
  • Purpose: Designed to show main roads (A, B, and other classes) with official Ministry of Transport numbers for motorists.
  • Features: Often featured inset maps of city centers, mileage charts, and were frequently produced as linen-backed, folded, or cloth-mounted maps.
  • Timeline: While early versions appeared in the 1920s/30s, editions continued to be released, with specific examples noted from 1930, 1935, and 1945.
