| Commentaires : | Whatman paper was used by the artists Thomas Gainsborough and J M W Turner. William Blake used Whatman paper for four of his illuminated books. Wellington wrote many of his famous dispatches on Whatman paper and Napoleon sat on the island of St Helena and wrote his long and detailed will on Whatman paper only three weeks before his death in 1821. George Washington signed many state documents on Whatman paper and Queen Victoria chose Whatman paper for her personal correspondence. In the 1930's Soviet leaders used the paper to publish their five year plan for the future of the USSR while the Peace Treaty with Japan was signed on Whatman paper at the close of World War Two. The paper mill ceased production in 1976 as a direct result of the miners strike and the three day week. |
