The collection of six items, with an envelope, is in good condition. An interesting sidelight into 1930s business practice, and an insight into an unusual business concern.

Accompanied by the firm's typed confirmation of the order, 13 November 1930, signed by director Alfred Hands, on two pages of a quarto bifolium, on a letterhead elaborately printed with, among other features, an engraving of a church being struck by lightning, surrounded by illustrations of the 'Prize Medals Awarded At International Exhibitions'. Gives a detailed quotation of the work to be undertaken. Statement and receipt for the same order follow. Also included is an eight-page quarto stapled publicity pamphlet, printed on art paper in red and black, with twelve photographic illustrations (ten of them of different sorts of lightning) together with an attractive full-page illustration showing two men 'Gilding the Cross of St. Paul's Cathedral' ('From THE SPHERE, August 3th, 1913.
