    Possibly even earlier, the second issue mentions Steven Cox being in financial difficulty which I know from discussions with safeman was around 1982, and the typewriter print looks to be about right for then.

    I am continuously amazed at the collective knowledge here at AL. All the knowledge snippets or small grains of sand combining. This is industrial archeology at its best. Thanks to Oldlock and Huw.

    I have added the third issue to the first post. Interestingly there doesn't seem to be any more issued with the author moving on to another position within Chubb - unless anybody knows different...

    I attach a copy of the J W Levy & Sons Safe Ratings table for 1985 which shows for the first time
    the Chubb Eurosafe replacing the Renown.
