Title: Whitefriars, surely?
Post by: tropdevin on August 18, 2008, 01:29:21 PM

I think this paperweight (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=2&campid=5335820906&toolid=10001&customid=&ext=180278781813&item=180278781813) is 1950s-1960s Whitefriars, not Victorian.

Seem to remember someone telling me the 2 I had (still got 1) are 1949, sure the thread is either on here or on the whitefriars site.

Maybe sunshine.   I thought these were made at the time of the Queen's coronation in 1953 (that's why you see red white and blue examples)
