- Acquisition notes
- Purchased with its pair from Conaghi's, who had acquired them 'some years ago at £175, and are ready in the different financial circumstances to offer them at £100' (see Hind's report to TYrustees 30 June 1939). For this reason the single impression in the Schwerdt sale was passed over, and the pair was purchased instead. Mr Hollebone paid for one, the other was purchased from BM funds.
