bookmark of the week


The London Transport Museum recently reopened after millions of pounds were spent upgrading it. This is a bookmark from my last visit there a few years ago. No doubt I will be going again to see what they have done to the place and will come back armed with another bookmark. One of the highlights they have in the museum is Harry Beck’s maps not just for the London Underground but also his rejected map for the Paris Metro. I recently did a piece about the history of Beck’s map so plan to go and see those in the New Year.
