Illustrated map for Londonist Drinks book

Illustrated map of the Karl Marx pub crawl along Tottenham Court Road for the book Londonist Drinks, published by AA Publishing.

It features six pubs, some of which Karl Marx visited while on his infamous bender in the late 1850s. His pub crawl ended in a wild police chase after Marx and his friends got up to some serious mischief. The map also indicates a few other Marx-related landmarks in the area: his former home; a mural; and the British museum where he spent a lot of time in the reading room writing Das Kapital.
