And probably much more expensive than getting paper direct from publisher.
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

A bit tricky to get a 1923/1941 paper from the publisher. The main idea is to use them for anniversaries & similar. I got one for the date of my parents marriage for their 60th anniversary. It is somewhat cheaper than diamonds, for those of us without untold wealth  :(  and  was a great success. As I said, the service is impressive.

I mentioned it to Di purely as a backstop, if there were no other options.
