Paul who was a regular attendee at our Bracknell paper money auctions sadly passed away at the beginning of this year. His wife Monica tells us that Paul has been collecting since his childhood in the 1950s having been introduced to the hobby by his father. He has always been a collector but since he retired was naturally more active. Monica tells us Paul did not collect for financial gain 'but was someone who achieved great joy from his hobby over many years'. The collection is noteworthy for the excellent grade most of the notes are in, the theme is British Isles and Commonwealth

Stanley Curister, the Curator of the National Gallery at the time, prepared designs for the printed reverse featuring the Bank's shield against a lined background which was approved in May 1944 after several variants were submitted experimenting with different coloured inks.
