I must admit that I did tweak them slightly, Paul - they were originally against a blue background - and I played with the brightness and contrast.

I have picked up a couple of the RD 114989 dishes in the last week. One is oval and the other oblong. On the oval version, like on Fred's pic, the left and right values on the registration diamond are swapped. Everything is correct on the oblong version. These are high quality pressed flint glass, easily the equal of the best from the Manchester factories.

Thank you for showing these, Neil.

I will add the photo of the oblong dish to the GMB RD database in due course.

Fred.
