§ Mr. Guy BarnettThe Ordnance Survey has recently introduced price changes over its wide range of publications resulting in varying levels of increases with some prices remaining tin changed and others reduced. For two of the more popular series—1:50,000 and 1:25,000 (2½ in.)—current prices of folded sheets are £1.40 and £1.15 respectively. The corresponding prices one year ago, and as they were the year before that, were £1.15 and £1.00, representing percentage increases over two years of 22 per cent. and 15 per cent.
