Glasgow Street Plan 1935 On Line
« on: Friday 07 August 09 12:29 UTC (UK) »

I have now uploaded a 1935 street plan of Glasgow for the benefit of members researching the city. To access the map go to http://www.artus-fh.co.uk/source/Early%20Maps.html and click on the Glasgow 1935 link.
Enjoy.
Eric

Great Eric. Good to have. I've got a small collection of maps of Glasgow but not one from this era.

Thanks

You're welcome, Dave. Seems to be one of the most popular maps I've put up.
Dozens of views already.

That's brilliant - thanks for putting it online! The Manchester maps are pretty neat too.

Thanks, Maggie. The reason that I began the maps project initially was because I could never find a decent on-line street map. Now I get hits from every area imaginable. I even had a visit from someone in Vatican city http://www.artus-fh.co.uk/source/Pics.html few weeks ago!
Regards.
Eric

Now, that's an impressive hit!

Any chance you'll get access to THEIR records? Grin

Hi, Dave. Probably just checking up on me.

But, seriously, I get hits from lots of educational institutions, councils and schools. Some folks browse for hours, occasionally.
By the way, is that a Tawny you have in your picture? I kept one when I was a young lad. Beautiful bird.

It is indeed a tawny owl Eric. Sadly, not mine. Was visiting a bird of prey centre near Sheffield. Got talking to the handler and he kindly let me hold it.
An amazing experience.

Can I add my thanks too, Eric. This era is of great worth to me.

And, to Dave, I have to say that your picture with the owl is superb. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Cheers guys

Gail

Still trying to work out which is the better looking. The owl is possibly slightly ahead.

Hi daval57,
I'm thrilled with the Glasgow 35 map, my parents lived there in 35 when first married, but I only have an 01 street guide and as you are aware streets have changed, so this is fabulous.
Thanks, from Australia.
