I saw a copy which was very similar if not identical in the Lace Centre at
Kenmare in Ireland. It included an inscription by the nuns with a date,

Hi Brian
Alan Cole was involved with improvement of design of the Irish laces and
made several visits to Ireland over the years.
This became controversial towards the end of his time there and he,
