London bus tickets from the 40's and 50's - any market for these ?

I was always amazed at the effort
that must have gone into printing different tickets
for every route listing the fare stages, with a
different colour card for every fare, and each one
with a unique serial number.

I would imagine that all of the different tickets of a particular colour
were printed by a single plate on a huge card, and after a stack of huge
cards had been printed, they were then cut into stacks of tickets.
