Fawcett was also an independent newsstand distributor, and in 1949 the company negotiated a contract with New American Library to distribute their Mentor and Signet titles. This contract prohibited Fawcett from publishing their own paperback reprints.

  1. The Ryde Gold Medal

    The Ryde Gold Medal is awarded each year to the best all round boy at Trinity College Kandy Trinity College , Kandy , an elite school in Sri Lanka founded in the 19th century and moulded in the British Public School tradition. The Ryde Gold Medal is the highest honour that the School can bestow. It is awarded on the result of a secret ballot conducted among the senior boys and the staff whose votes, together with that of the Principal, each count as one. While this system makes deadlock possible, it is only on four occasions that the Medal has not been awarded as a result of the three votes going to three different people. The Medal cannot be won more than once. The Ryde Gold Medal was first presented in 1908 to John Andrew, but he was not the first boy in the history of the school to be adjudged the best all rounder. Historical records show that such a prize has been awarded as early as 1894. The Ryde Gold Medal is named after R. W. Ryde Rev. R. W. Ryde , a former Principal of Trinity 1900 1902 . Notable winners of the Ryde Gold Medal include former Under Secretary General of the UN Jayantha Dhanapala 1956 , former Sri Lankan Foreign Minister Lakshman Kadirgamar 1949 , Former Vice President and CIO of the World Bank M.V.
