Thank You Steve and Thank You Mike.
The information provided is very much appreciated. I believe we're getting somewhere here!
So to recap, am I right to presume that Buttons had the first contract (probably mid-1950s) before being taken over by Francis Sumner and later bought by Firmin (sometime in the late 1960s) at which time over-stamping was done prior to Firmin having the new stock stamped Firmin London?
