Hi Roger,

I couldn't agree more regarding John's research, a really splendid job. As you say the back mark is incredibly interesting and it is going to be fascinating keeping an eye out for examples that may be marked similar in the future.

Your comments on the reference to the King is always something to ponder one.

With such an established business (as it would appear from the newspaper notification) it is a wonder more example of these mark haven't been noted.

Cheers, Roy.
