==History==

The [[De La Rue]] activities were started in [[1813]] by ''Thomas De la Rue'' in Guernsey in France, with the printing of the newspaper ''Le Miroir Politique''. Three years later ''Thomas De la Rue''  moved to England and since [[1821]] began to operate as a printer in the manufacture of office equipment. The initial success of the company is however due to the creation of an efficient method for printing playing cards (up to then hand-painted) that constituted the early fortunes of the company, and its reputation as the creator of English playing card.
