You will find a very short list of those who may be able to help with attribution in the Exhibition catalogue, p.6., but do not expect them to be clairvoyant.   On the shelf I have a fabulous perfume atomiser.   I know who made and cut the glass — the Walsh master craftsmen, but nobody can tell whether it was made by them at the Walsh factory before it closed in 1951, or later after they moved to Tudor Crystal.   There are always going to be Lemington/Kings Lynn/Wedgwood attribution difficulties.    Does it really matter?  Bernard C.  8)

Ah, I was labouring under the (wrong) impression that the Kings Lynn versions were quite a bit later (Lemington early 60's vs Kings Lynn late 70's) - no you're quite right Bernard, if they're so close in manufacture it's not important to pin it down precisely, I didn't realise until I got this piece that there was quite so much of a grey area/crossover between the factories.  Thanks for your help so far anyway, sort of proved my first suspicions to be along the right lines :-)
