Not a charity shop find per se, but mum and I volunteer for a local charity. This was dropped in a box of junk to dispose of after the monthly jumble sale. Needless to say, my mum has an eagle eye and brought this for me.
Ordanance survey map sheet 111 (Bath & Bristol), one inch to one statute mile, published in 1941 by the War Office. There are a couple of holes in the folds, but otherwise the sheet is in pretty good nick. Now I'm wondering whether anyone can tell me if maps like this were available to the general public, or whether their use was restricted to the military and the civil defence services...
