A wonderful presentation book housed in a hand crafted wooden box probably also provided by De La Rue, safe to say that this describer has not seen another example of this volume in his 46 years in the philatelic business.rnrnNote: It is interesting that Perkins, Bacon allegedly lost their contract due to the "Cancelled" overprints on classic British Commonwealth issues provided to the Hill family, yet De La Rue managed to keep their contract whilst providing a book of this nature to a presumably valued customer.
