In 1963 Editions Alecto commissioned two groups of prints by Bawden to commemorate three London exchanges that were about to be demolished. In the first group were the Stock Exchange, the Coal Exchange and Lloyds. The print of Lloyds shows the 'Room' in Lime Street, to which Lloyds had moved from Leadenhall Street in 1958. It has since been demolished. Here are two of the prints:

The following prints are part of the Nine London Monuments series of linocuts commissioned by Editions Alecto in 1966. Alecto specialised in high quality reproductions, and the originals were made by Bawden using four or five blocks in his Brick House studio. He used a variety of techniques to introduce texture and shading of colour in the process. Here are six of them:

All the buildings in the series had different skies, and this one has been inked in such a way as to allow the white of the paper to show through:

1966 The Horse Guards linocut

1966 The Tower of London linocut

1966 Albert Bridge linocut
