Mad. Totally mad. Give me a hallmark any day. Makes my hallmarked HPs look as cheap as chips.

Enjoy.

Hi ST,

Each to his own I suppose.

I was directed to it yesterday for a 'look see' by a fellow collector.

In my opinion, the maker mark was genuine as was the slider for the maker. I have seen an unmarked slider example by Marples & Beasley but that is about it so was quite excited to see a Timings example.

Expensive? Yes, but this is a very rare badge and I am sure that many A/A collectors, like me, would like an example for their collections.

Regards,

Chris
