Old Oxford pictorial map by Spencer Hoffman, 1929 - University and Colleges

This lovely map of Oxford by Spencer Hoffman, dating from 1929, shows you that the city has hardly changed at all in the last 90 years (or indeed in the last 200 years!)

This map looks great at all sizes: 12x16 inches (31x41cm), 18x24 inches (45.5x61cm),  and 24x30 inches (61x76cm), but it looks even better when printed large.

I can create beautiful, large prints of this map up to 56x70 inches (140x180cm). Please get in touch if you're looking for larger, customised or different framing options.

The model in the listing images is holding the 20x16 inch (50x40cm) version of this map.

Please note the unframed 24x30 inch map has white edges around the map. These edges can help you with framing, or if you don’t need them they are very easy to snip off with scissors. All other maps, including the framed maps, look exactly like the listing images.

The legends on the left and right help you identify the various Oxford colleges, churches, landmarks and other university buildings. Take a close look and you can spot Pembroke, Christchurch, Corpus Christi, Magdalen, Queen's, Jesus, Trinity, Keble and many other colleges.

This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, work leaving, or housewarming gift for someone who has graduated from the colleges here or someone who finds themselves connected to the wonderful city of Oxford!

This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
