Lot 108

London. Gill (MacDonald), Wonderground Map of London Town, published The Westminster Press, circa 1928, photolithographic colour printed map, a few closed tears and splits along old folds affecting image, 740 x 930 mm This is an example of the slightly smaller and later edition of Gill's original 1913 map. There is a 1924 edition which is assumed to have been altered to help the promotion of the 1924 British Empire Exhibition that was held at Wembley between April and October of that year. It can be identified by a sign saying:- 'On To Wembley' and an empire lion in the top left hand corner below the man pushing a bus. This example is a slightly later state with a greyhound replacing the lion. Greyhound racing started at Wembley in 1927 so this edition probably dates from 1927 or 1928. The map remains highly stylised and whimsical and was held in great affection by Londoners. It was originally commissioned by The London Underground and was designed to be displayed in tube stations. The intense pictorial content of the map caught the public's imagination and as a result Gill is often credited with creating a resurgence of the genre of decorative map making. Much work and research has been done by Roderick Barron and Bryars & Bryars on the maps of the Underground and the work of Macdonald Gill and I am also grateful to Claire Dobbins book, London Underground Maps: Art, Design and Cartography.

Greenough was stung enough by the critisicm to issue a written defense of his actions which was published in 'Memoir of a Geological Map of England: to Which are Added, an Alphabetical Index to the Hills, and a List of the Hills Arranged According to Counties (1820)'.Smith's low social staus and background resulted in his work being largely ignored and the Geological Society of London did indeed plagiarise the map, undercutting Smith's asking price, which eventually pushed Smith to financial ruin and the debtor's prison. Recognition of his role as 'The Father of English Geology' would only follow much later in 1831 when Smith was awarded the Woolaston medal by the Geological Society. Greenough's map is important in its own right and is now recognised as a separate piece of scholarship but unlike Smith it involved no surveying but relied on other surveyors sending him information which he then collated.
