Geographia was a London based publisher of globes, maps and atlases founded in the early 1900s by Alexander Gross (1879-1958). In 1936 his daughter, Phyllis Pearsal, went on to found the Geographers A-Z Map Company, a subsidiary producing street maps and atlases of all the major cities in the United Kingdom. From the mid 20th century on, a New York office also produced street guides for American cities.
