A most interested 13x18cm three-piece presentation card from INCO (The International Nickel Company of Canada), comprised of: (1) mounted at center, a 34mm round nickel commemorative medal for 1974 Centennial of Winnipeg, with City crest on obverse, and an INCO Nickel Miner at Thompson, Manitoba on reverse; (2) two small pieces of unrefined Nickel ore mounted below below to left; (3) a small 19x20mm square clip of "Electrolytic Nickel", below to right. With detailed description on back of the Winnipeg Centennial program, while front of card details "The Winning of Nickel", from explortation to mining to refining. An interesting item, and the first such set we've seen in 35 years of dealing
