Vintage Ordnance Survey map from the "Popular Edition," covering the area of Kettering and Huntingdon in the United Kingdom. The cover art is typical of Ordnance Survey maps produced in the early 20th century, often between the 1920s and 1940s, with a one-inch-to-one-mile scale. These maps were designed for road use and outdoor enthusiasts, providing contoured topographic details that show elevation and landscape features. The map priced at 2 shillings and 6 pence (2/6), was a common price for maps of this type during that period.
This map, number 74, is part of a larger series, each covering different regions across the UK. This series is now collectible, appreciated for its historical and aesthetic value, as well as for the insights it provides into the landscape and infrastructure of the time.
