DESIGNED AND PRODUCED
BY
WILLIAM FRANKLIN & SON (N.I.) LTD.
BANBRIDGE, N. IRELAND
 
 
 
 
There was issued in 1962 a similar bookmark, except it was larger - 23.0cm long by 5.3cm wide, and with the date in the title. This earlier version was woven in Coventry, and is recorded as ofr118.
The basic design was reissued later without the date, from the Northern Ireland factory. As can be seen from the printing on the reverse of the card, this is the later issue.
