§ Mr. John P. Mackintoshasked the Minister of Public Building and Works whether he will consider the sale of souvenirs at historic monuments in his charge.
§ Mr. PrenticeAs a means of meeting a public demand and helping to raise the standards of design in this field I have, as an experiment, commissioned four souvenirs which will shortly be placed on sale at certain historic monuments in my charge, including in particular the Tower of London. These are a mounted Knight, in 15th Century armour; a standing figure, wearing armour of a design made for Henry VIII at the Royal Workshops at Greenwich; a Wedgwood cameo of the Emperor Hadrian; and a bronze medallion depicting the Tower of London on one side and Yeoman Warders on the other. Examples or illustrations of these will be on display in the Library today and tomorrow.
