Being the substance of a Lecture delivered at the Royal Institution of Great Britain , on May 9 th , 1856 . With Explanatory Notes and Engraved Specimens . By HENRY BRADBURY , M . R . I ., &c " An interesting paper on the Manufacture of Bank Notes was recently read by Mr . Henry Bradbury at the Royal Institution . Its object was to enforce the necessity of employing the highest resources of the engraver's art . According to Mr . Bradbury , every means has peen taken to bring bank-note paper to perfection , but similar attention has not been paid to bank-note engraving , although excellence in both is essential to a complete result- The general correctness of his theory will probably be admitted "Times Money Article .
