Publisher's green leather binding with gilt titles to spine and gilt page edges.

64pp.

'Early this year there was unveiled in the Bank's principal office at Cape Town a Memorial to all those members of the Staff who gave their lives in the late war.

It is realized that many of the Staff may never have the opportunity of seeing the Memorial, and the Directors have therefore thought it appropriate to have printed a Memorial Volume containing the names of all the members of the Staff who served in the Forces.

On behalf of the Directors a copy of this volume is now handed to you in the belief that you will value it as a record of the splendid service rendered by the Staff of the Bank in the War of 1939-1945.'
