The intervention failed in the South of Russia and Ukraine though and the foreign forces were evacuated in April 1919. In preparation for their occupation of that part of Russia, these notes were prepared in Great Britain, utilizing lithographic printing. Because of the quick failure of the operation, these notes were never used and were stored for a long period of time before they were released to the collecting community.</b></p> </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
