Spear & Jackson 1961 Catalogue (Saws)
In 1960 Spear and Jackson celebrated its 200th year in existence with a range of "Double Century" tools. The Double Century handsaw with the royal purple medallion was illustrated in the 1961 catalogue. I managed to buy a 1961 catalogue though eBay recently and thought these scans would be of interest to saw lovers. The prices are in UK pre-decimal pounds, shillings and pence.
Does anybody have one of these Double Century saws in their shed? I've yet to see one offered on eBay or other websites.

Spear & Jackson Double Century Saw
Just read an old post with a S&J catalogue containing the double century saw but I am unable to see any detail.
I bought a Spearior 88 on e-bay to kick off learning woodwork
and sharpening my own saw, the seller kindly threw in three other saws that he couldnt shift, one of which has a rosewood handle and a purple medallion but the etching is so faint I cant see the wording, would anyone have a close up of one of these saws as I gather they are all numbered and would like to find out what mine is.
