HC Deb 22 December 1937 vol 330 c2004W
Captain A. Graham

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether, in view of His Majesty's Accession to the Throne and in accordance with ancient precedent, a new seal of the Duchy bearing His Majesty's effigy has yet been made?

Earl Winterton

The Duchy and County Palatine of Lancaster Seals of His Majesty (which are not public seals) are in course of being engraved from the designs of Mr. Percy Metcalfe, whose special qualifications for this task are well known. In view of the historic interest attaching to these seals, I will arrange for impressions to be placed for a time in the Tea Room, so soon as they are available.
