The book was originally planned to be launched at the company’s annual display in March, but it had to be cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. One of the company’s officers, Andrew Swann, who compiled the book, said he was “indebted to the many people who provided photographs and shared their BB memories to be included”.
