Exploring the Social Map of London: 1899-1900

An aged, sepia-toned poster titled 'SOCIAL MAP OF LONDON. —1899-1900— COLOURED BY STREETS.' displays a classification system with eight socioeconomic categories, each paired with a color swatch and its French translation. The categories range from 'WEALTHY' (yellow) to 'SEMI-CRIMINAL' (black), compiled by Charles Booth. The poster's vintage appearance and bilingual text emphasize its historical origin as a sociological survey.
