1950's fivers

My Mum's trying to get her hands on a £5-note that would have been legal tender in 1951 for Rattigan's "The Deep Blue Sea". If anyone has one that she could "borrow" (only to look at, of course. Because copying it would be illegal, now, wouldn't it?), or knows of a website that'll show an accurate representation, I'd appreciate any leads.

Hi

Heres a couple of links to a fiver that was in use between 1945 -1960 Hope it helps.

Front

Reverse

the reverse appears to be just blank as far as I can see, what you see in the picture seems to be little more than the front side image showing through with the exception of the number. The main site url is

just in case you cant get to the links direct you 'll have to navigate though.

In fact Ive just noticed the date on the note itself "52" so...

 

Hope thats of some use.

Thanks, Mike. You've just elevated me to "favoured offspring" status!

 

Peter - sadly their British notes only go back to the 60's, but thanks for the link - I've no doubt I'll have use for it in the future!
