Ron Stacey was chairman of the NCGRC ([British] National Chinchilla Giganta Rabbit Club (founded 1923)), for many years maybe decades, about 3+ decades before 2017.

Ron Stacey was breeding rabbits during 2nd world war (WW2 ended 1945), I believe always Chinchilla Gigantas, & continued beyond 1975. He referred for Chinchilla Giganta history to Grace Wren , maybe she was daughter of the Chris Wren referred to below. The full mix of rabbits her father used to produce the Chinchilla Giganta seemed unknown, though main breeds were generaly agreed.

At 2017-12-30, a Search shows these NO Lifting By Ears ! : It's evil & totaly un-ncessary to lift rabbits by their ears. Instead put one hand behind their rear above the tail, the other hand under, just behind front legs, lift, dont leave them in the air long cos they get nervous, lean back a bit, & plonk their back feet on your belly some where around your navel, & front feet on your chest, they relax, you can walk wherever, sometimes if you keep still too long, they want to climb up to your shoulder, for a more horizontal platform or better view ?.

I jhs@ never saw the other genetic throwbacks mentioned above (eg no occasional white fur etc), except one common fault we saw: fairly often one in a litter (ie a group born maybe a month or 2 back, would have its fur as a ragged knotted mess, not all pointing parallel backward like a normal rabbit. Not that the other rabbits seemed to discriminate, just the humans.
