The Cluny Lace Co. factory in Ilkeston, Derbys. is still working and I
was fortunate enough with some friends to go over the factory a couple

I did a search and ended up at the Netherlands Post Office site, which
(Google translated into English) describes how the Post Office will print
special issue stamps just for you at a price, if you supply all the artwork

stamp was a lot more than the postage value.

was my aunt)
Hello All! The online photos of the Scranton Lace facility are mind boggling!
Thanks for posting--I can hardly wait to see the TV program. Thanks also for
the tape braid discussion. After making Battenburg as tape lace, I was
surprised when friends labeled Russian Idrija as the same.
All I get is 'page not found'.
