Every local politicians pet scheme got up!
A reproduction (full size) of the map was on sale at the Met Shop

has already posted it in the Photos area, but it is a bit small to
read!
Will try to scan in sections and see what happens when I try to
paste it together electronically!

Jack Edwards sent me privately something similar: a photo of a
cable and electric lines in 1923, with planned changes indicatedalong with
ambitious plans for future expansion. I'm hoping he'll be able topost it to
the group as well.
