A fascinating set. I have a set also which came from a library which was
disolving it's collection. The dinner was given by Bill Paley to welcome home
Murrow to the US. He had the dinner speeches recorded and then pressed in
Leather Bound Albums with the menu and program book enclosed and each dinner
guest's name gold embossed on the cover. It was then sent to each guest. The date
of the dinner was on December 2nd if I read my notes correctly. (I don't have
access to the album at moment.
A fascinating piece and obviously a VERY limited edition.
