Lloyd’s Maritime Atlas has this type of info but I’m not sure how far back it goes. We only have the most current edition.

Subject: Navigational charts from the 1940s
All,
I have a patron interested in locating navigational charts/maps from the 1940s that show shipping lane routes (commercial and military) in the North Atlantic. I’m coming up empty so I thought I’d ask and see if anyone might have some suggestions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dennis
