George Bradshaw (1801-1853) was an English cartographer, printer and publisher. He is most famous for developing a series of railway timetables and guides. The books became synonymous with its publisher so that, for Victorians and Edwardians alike, a railway timetable was « a Bradshaw ». After his death Punch magazine said of Bradshaw »s labours: « seldom has the gigantic intellect of man been employed upon a work of greater utility. »
