FORGER’S INVENTION
PATENTS SOUGHT IN 31 COUNTRIES A Swedish counterfeiter was sentenced some time ago in Stockholm to nine months’ hard labour for counterfeiting Bank of England notes so cleverly that banks accepted them without hesitation. The photographic reproduction method invented by the forger was found so valuable that a syndicate was formed in Sweden to exploit It. Applications for patents have been filed in 31 countries, and It is expected that it will yield good profits. The method is understood to establish an entirely new principle, and has since been perfected to make it suitable for three-colour printing.
