Title: Blue 12 spoke 1-1-2-2

I would presume this to be Strathearn?  But some of the canes are more Pointy, which I would normally think were more like Perthshire than Strathearn, so help here would be appreciated.

Diameter just under 3 ins 72 mm

The tidiness of the setup suggests early Perthshire Paperweights. If I was selling it, I'd offer it as "probably Perthshire Paperweights but might be Strathearn".

Hi Lynne, its a Perthshire PP1, pre 1978 (because it hasn't got a central P cane).  I can show you pics of one I had recently which had a p cane and its label, its identical.  Should do £30 to £40 in the current market.  Make sure you list it as Pre 78, it makes a difference!

grrr stupid eBay - can't add anything to the description, there is something wrong with the revision form...

Never mind, someone seems to have got here before me, and let me know Ian's thoughts, so that will have to do as information!
