In den Warenkorbunbound. New York City transit map and station guide published in 1969 by the New York City Transit Authority. Page unfolded measures 19" x 15.5" and folded 4.75" x 3.25". Charming pocket guide to New York City's public transport system before it was known as the "Subway". The map was originally published in 1968 by the New York… City Transit Authority and revised in 1969. Shows the various Rapid Transit lines, stations, connections, routes, etc. The New York City Transit Authority (NYCTA) was created in 1953 and included the buses, streetcars and the IRT, BMT and IND subways. In 1968, the NYCTA and the MaBSTOA were placed under the control of the MTA, which is today the busiest and largest transit system in North America. This map, made just a year after the transition, notes all the rapid transit lines. An explanation in the key located in the top right corner notes the lines that were formerly a part of the IRT division and the lines formerly under the BMT and IND divisions, to further assist the commuter in navigating the new system. Verso of the map includes a detailed guide to each route with stations listed. A list of places to visit with direction is also included. The map is in very good condition with minimal wear along the folds.

In den WarenkorbNew York City subway guide published in 1974 by the New York City Transit Authority. Designed by Massimo and Lella Vignelli. Page unfolded measures 21" x 18" and folded 7" x 3 1/2". This 1974 subway map features the iconic design made by Massimo and Lella Vignelli of the New York subway system. Prioritizing readability and aesth…etics over geographical accuracy, Vignelli's design provoked immediate criticism and even ire from the public, contrasted by critical acclaim for its ingenuity and utility. Set in the Swiss-designed Helvetica font often used by Modernist designers, the guide shows all the routes comprising the subway system, including lines run by the IRT, IND, and the BMT. The front side of the map lays out the lines in different colors, with water colored in a shade of beige common to 1970s design. A key at the top assigns colors and delineates symbols, providing short descriptions of each route and its hours. On the back is a larger scale map showing lower Manhattan. When folded, the map's covers have a bold graphic design made from the lines' colors. The map is in very good condition with some slight and wear along fold lines and phone number written in pen verso. Vignelli's first edition of this map was published in 1972. The 1974 edition has some minor changes from the original design. Vignelli's subway design was revised by the MTA six times between 1972 and 1979 when the MTA finally caved to public pressure and produced a more geographically accurate subway map designed by Michael Hertz Associates. Massimo and Lella Vignelli (illustrator).

In den WarenkorbGood. Wear along original fold lines. Foxing. Toning. Size 55.5 x 46 Inches. This is a 1969 revised edition of the New York City Transit Authority map of the New York City Subway. When this map debuted in 1968, it combined several design innovations to make navigating the growing Subway system easier. A New Subway Map In the lat…e 1960s, the New York City Transportation Authority embarked on a mission to integrate the previously separate IRT, BMT, and IND Divisions more thoroughly. Part of this drive included the construction of the Chrystie Street Connection, one of the few track connections between the BMT and IND. Also, the agency wanted to 'integrate information delivery,' which included a new typeface for all signage and a standardized approach to line identification. The map was the combined effort of R. Raleigh D'Adamo (who proposed color-coding the subway by individual routes and not by the historic operating company), Dr. Stanley Goldstein (a professor at Hofstra University), and Dante Calise (art director at Diamond Packaging, which printed the map). Innovations in Practice As is immediately noticeable, each subway line is illustrated using a different color, making route-finding easier. Dashed lines highlight express routes, affording faster commute options. Stations are highlighted in black and red, with the red transfer stations identified with the lines they serve - another innovation. A guide that explains the notations and hours of operation for each line is included in the upper right. Publication History and Census This map was created and published by the New York City Transit Authority in 1969 as a revised edition of the new 1968 subway map. Large-format editions, like the present example, were hung in subway stations and, when replaced, were either thrown out or pasted over, making the survival rate very low. We are aware of only one other surviving example, which is in private hands and in much worse condition. The 1968 edition of the New York Subway map was replaced in 1972 by Massimo Vignelli's iconic map.
