London Transport - 1947 cover designs for pocket maps

For many years London Transport varied the designs for the covers of their pocket maps and this set of four (Country Area buses and the Underground diagram would make up the six) show the zig-zag and colours adopted for the various operations. One note of interest; the First Issues for 1947 show the title as 'London Passenger Transport Board' whilst the Second Issues carry 'London Transport', the title adopted after the nationalisation of the LPTB on 1 January 1948 (albeit minus the 'Executive' as the Board became).
