NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS:
This is our one hundred and thirty-second short list. We hope you find something of interest.
We intend to produce many more lists in future on a variety of subjects and we would prefer where possible to send these by email as PDF
file attachments or links to files on our Website . This has the obvious advantage of reducing costs and enhancing the speed of delivery
and the email/PDF versions will also be enhanced with colour illustrations. A fully illustrated version of this list in pdf format is also
available on our website or will be emailed on request. Likewise we encourage you to send orders by email, fax or telephone.
If you would like to receive future lists please indicate your interests by email (preferred) or by using the form below by fax or post. If you
would like to receive ALL lists (email only) please let us know also. If for any reason you do not wish to receive any more of these lists,
also please let us know and we will cease and desist.
We have experimented with a number of forms for emailing orders to us but many security systems now prevent such links from working
correctly so we suggest simply emailing us at: [email protected] and copying and pasting the entries of the items you want
from the list above. If you encounter any difficulties, please let us know! For orders by fax or by post please use the Order Form at end.
