- [Letter] 1828 Oct 31 [to] Jas. Bandinel, Foreign Office, London / M.I. Brunel. [Apologises for delay in writing "to my friend .... the Tunnel maker". Refers to the "state of uncertainty" regarding the Thames Tunnel although "many enquiries are made as to when it will be resumed". Comments on the correspondence between Directeur General des Ponts et Chaussees and Mr. Smith [chairman, Thames Tunnel Co.]. Brunel is "totally ignorant on the subject of the Tunnel, the continuation of which I however consider certain was it but on Mr Smith's authority". Praises the part played by Bandinel]

- Associated person:
- Brunel, Marc Isambard, 1769-1849, Dedicatee
- Comments:
- Sir Marc Isamabart Brunel (1769-1849) was a French engineer. He emigrated to New York during the French Revolution where he built various constructions prior to coming to England in 1799 for a project in Portsmouth. He then came to London to begin ambitious works on a Thames tunnel in 1825 which would connect Rotherhithe and Wapping. This was completed in 1842 and opened the following year.
- Comments:
- The maker's mark ' J. TAYLOR MEDALLIST BIRM.' belongs to the medallist William Joseph Taylor (1802-1885). He was born In Birmingham and became an established medallist and medal dealer producing medals, coins, and tokens. Taylor has been associated with the Soho Mint after acquiring several of their dies in 1848, which he consequently re-struck. He had a large export business to places as far afield as Australia and New Zealand.
- Comments:
- As most items are manufactured in the same year they are presented, date of manufacture for this medal is taken to be the same as its presentation date. Please note this manufacture date is speculative as occasionally items are manufactured before or even after the date of presentation.
- Comments:
- The cataloguing of the medal collection at the Library and Museum of Freemasonry was supported by a grant from Arts Council England in 2013.
