War Office: Ordnance Survey of England and Wales Sheet 132 Portsmouth and Southampton, Sheet 133 Chichester and Worthing, 5th Edition Style Second War Revision 1940, Sheet 134 Brighton and Hove, Sheet 135 Hastings. , London: Geographical Section General Staff, No. 3907 Published by the War Office printed by Ordnance Survey ,1931, 1932, 1941.

Scale 1 inch to the mile. These maps have been joined together, contemporaneously, as a continuous roll covering the South Coast of England from Southampton to Dungeness. They are paper, (sheets 132 and 133) and linen backed, (sheets 134, 135). The first two are marked War Revision 1940, the second two are older 1931, presumably not yet revised. They almost certainly formed a wall map in a wartime operations context. They came from the estate of Commodore C.A.R. Shillington CB VDR RNVR. There is some wear, two small repaired holes, and a linen backing is detatching at the end but is perfectly restorable. A nice wartime souvenir map. (Book ref. 9722)  £55.00
