No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Sowerby Advert

This is an extract from an advert placed by Hetheringtons Ltd, Brighton, in the Mid Sussex Times, 25th July 1933.

I have saved the entire page with the advert on, but sampled and tidied up the important bit :P , as shown below!

Re: Sowerby "Cadet" Advert

This is a really interesting find LinzC. The tall candlesticks make 'The Cadet' more like the 'Junior' set which is shown with an all over star tray and no pot finial in the 1933 catalogue. It's still all quite confusing.

Also of note "The Brilliant" and "The Manchester" both 7 piece and both in flint, two more names to be pondered over there, and a nice image of  Sowerby "County" with no snippets missing, well found!  :)
