Would the current 'Cities Revealed' London mapping qualify (air photo on
one side, same-scale street map on the other)?

>Does anyone know of any mapping (ideally British, topographic and

>
>OS of Great Britain: index, 1:1M, with 1:25,000 Pathfinder on one

>
>OS of Ireland, 1:50,000 Sheet 54, Preliminary Edition, 1989: one
>issue has nearly co-extensive Landsat imagery on the reverse
>
>OS Northern Ireland: Sleive Croob Outdoor Pursuits Map, 1:25,000,
>1995: one side is 1:10,000 reduced combined with 1:50,000 enlarged
>(!); the other side is 1:50,000 outline detail only.
>
>Of course, I know about cases where maps are printed back to back
>at different scales (e.g. street map plus `environs' map) or different
>dates (e.g. some Godfreys), or to maximise geographical coverage
>(loads of OS examples) but no others where, effectively, the same
>thing is said twice, but with different grammar and vocabulary.
