Remarks This version was designed by John Bartholomew (about 1955), it uses 40° North and South as standard parallels instead of 50°28´ in Winkel’s original design. Winkel Tripel variant using 0° as reference parallels, see What’s the Winkel Tripel BOPC?.

The year 1921 refers to the creation date of the original projection, I don’t know when the variant was developed or who did it.
