A Tribute to Horatio Nelson

Just been given a job from really nice guy called David Griffin who is a Chelsea pensioner, Dave had an old manuscript written for Horatio Nelson as a tribute to him that he wanted to reproduce, it had been kept in a vault in Harrods, Dave nervously gave us the original, we were nervous as well, we immediately scanned the original as we were worried about damaging it, the manuscript dated back to 1805 and was the only one of it's kind, once scanned we retouched the document made printing plates and reproduced new copies for Dave who was then to distribute it through specialist booksellers Dave also wrote a booklet which accompanied the document Nelson & Victory at Cape Trafalgar. Some of the younger guys asked if I remembered the manuscript being printed originally blooming cheek!
