Subject: Another map corpus on UNESCO 'Memory of
the World Register'
Extract (less the coloured image of sample
area around the London Metropolitan Archives’ location in
Finsbury) from LMA’s online ‘Newsletter’, issue 15, Autumn
2013, posted 15 November:-
“UNESCO
UK Memory of the World Register
The London County Council’s iconic series of Second World
War Bomb Damage maps has recently been added to the UNESCO
UK Memory of the World Register. It is one of a select group
of eleven items and collections to be added to the list of
the UK’s outstanding documentary heritage in 2013, and is
LMA’s second contribution to the list following the
inclusion of the King William I Charter in 2010. Howard
Doble tells more.”
Clicking on the “Howard Doble tells
more” will lead to –
‘Lis-maps’ and ‘MAPS-L’ subscribers may
recall that ‘The London County Council bomb damage maps
1939-1945’, with an introduction by Robin Woolven ; edited by
Ann Saunders (London : London Topographical Society ; London
Metropolitan Archives, 2005), ISBN 0-902087-51-7, LTS’s own
Publication No.164 was a ‘best seller’.
