BVB France ! Transfer printed shots
« on: June 26, 2005, 01:56:19 PM »
Is it Burlington Bertie after a night on the tiles ?
Or was he doing the Lameth Walk ?

Hang on a mo he's French !!!
And yet the subject looks so very English..
And who is BVB ?

Société Exploitation Verrière Beauce-Bourgogne S.A. et Verrière de la Chapelle St. Mesmin.
Genlis near Dijon, Côte d'Or, France. Your mark is assumed to be 1930's

Not surprising they used initials! Try getting that name on eBay title!

Hi, Pete.

Back on topic  ;) - just wondered whether, given the limited colour range, Burlington Bertie might be screen-printed rather than transfer? If so, the date of the mark might make him quite interesting - Frank, was it you who suggested that screen-printing was introduced in the 30s?

BVB (?) France

Any ideas who this firm may be please? Four tiny tots with transfer-printed huntsman on a horse + hounds. Moulded mark on the base which has BVB in an oval, with FRANCE beneath the oval. the V is much larger than the BB -  the tots are these:

and the mark looks like this (best picture I could get despite trying for ages!):   http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/displayimage.php?pos=-5987

That's why it rang a bell! Doh... and I posted into that thread as well...   :-[  thanks David, another mystery solved.  Easy one that!  ;D


Ohhhh just a thought... would they be 1950's or earlier? These are the ones for the 1950's play set so earlier isn't a problem.. just as long as they aren't later!!!

Really hard to date these - I have seen this style of tot before, and I think with later (1950s) designs. Of course, if it were a successful design it could have been produced for many years.

Re. play - would anyone be that critical, even if they knew?
