My Reference R&N 9 - Page 2 of 3
The accepted designs for the 3d & 1/- were submitted by Messrs. J.E. Hughes and V.E. Horne.
Their original designs were modified slightly in accordance with the committee’s wishes and then submitted to Waterlow & Sons in London for printing. These unique Die proofs are ex Waterlow Archives and were originally sold by Chritie’s Robson Lowe in their 11 December 1985 sale as lot No 1735. After more than twenty years in private hands they were again sold by auction in 2007.

The proofs on Pages 1 and 2 plus the imperforate plate proofs, illustrated on page 3, present a unique nine item assembly that cannot be replicated.
