Knife Edge Two Piece, 1962-1965 bronze is featured on the front cover and the unveiling photograph on page 6. Both the Chairman and Treasurer made passing mention of the work. Sir Kenneth Clark's speech after the unveiling pays tribute to Moore's evident greatness from the early part of his career. Describing Moore as the great civic sculptor of the age" his figures look equally in command of any environment. His imagination comes from great depths and expresses instincts fundamental to the history of mankind. The sculpture was a gift to the nation by the C.A.S. and was unveiled in Abingdon Street Gardens facing the House of Lords."
