Harry Beck's iconic Underground map was first published in 1933, and he spent the rest of his life almost obsessively revising it (or tinkering with it), not just because of changes in the network.  Some of these revisions were even published.  This one was current in 1957. Whereas originally the southern end of the Northern Line was a left-pointing diagonal, as it is today, here it is vertical.  Also the bottle shape of the Circle Line was temporarily abandoned for a rectangle.
