Alle Welt: Great Britain: folder with archival material of Waterlow & Sons which was used as demonstration material for the security printers in 1934. The folder starts with the copy of the original letter of a printer / plate engraver who describes difficulties in printing with several types of plates and colors and gives some solution advises to the recipient of the letter. Following the folder contains 6 different paper (partly watermarked) or cardboard types with the print of the same vignette which shows an eagle with crown at center, coins at left and right, which resembles a design of the scandinavian region. Some of these prints with security printers annotations at lower border. On the last page the folder contains 2 sheets (offset) of 9 vignettes of a woman seated with a globe at right, which resembles a design for north america but this is not stated in the letter. Alltogether a nice archival collection.
