Paris Metro1939 Pocket Map

Here lies some pretty impressive feats of cartography and métropolitain architecture by Harry Beck to kickstart your Friday. Woo, long weekend! Thanks Queen Victoria. A few more maps after the jump.

I quite enjoy the Montréal metro map. Not for it’s beauty, but rather it’s simplicity. When you want to get from A to B, especially in a foreign city, the easier the map is to read the better.
