A note from BCD: One can never have enough of leafing through the Greek
SNG Lockett. Especially when all parts are bound together, making it so much
easier to move from one feast for the eyes to another. And to think that his
collection of English coins was as important as his Greek! This writer once
knew an elderly gentleman who, when he was very young, collected English
Mediaeval pennies. He would call Lockett’s residence on several occasions in
the late 40’s and ask if he could see his collection. Lockett would always
invite him for afternoon tea and would receive him seated in his Winter garden.
After tea was served, Lockett would ask him what he wanted to see and then he
would say to his butler “James, can you please bring cabinet no. 14”. Those
were the days…
