I don't think there are monk canes until the early 1970s. Whitefriars made a few weights in the 1950s, and greater numbers in the 1960s, but the majority were in the 1970s - and most of these have monk / date canes. There are one or two early pieces around from the mid 1930s - 1950s, but I am not sure that anyone can distinguish them from Walsh Walsh pieces. If someone out there has good diagnostics on these, please shout!
