OXFORD. From the midst of this wonderful university city by the Thames, tower and spire seem to pierce the sky to challenge the low-flying aeroplane. Magdalen Tower, in a band of trees by the Cherwell, ends the curved sweep of the " High, " beyond which are modern suburbs ; on the left is Broad Street. Artist/engraver/cartographer: Engraved by Aerofilms. Provenance: "Countries of the World". Type: Book illustration.
