Now this paperweight (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5574631383&toolid=10001&campid=5336261829&customid=&icep_item=370267548853&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) I like! (But I would have preferred a colour other than lime yellow for the inner garland canes.)

Hi
I know very little about paperweights, in fact what I know about paperweights could be written on the back of the "monart" label and that to me is the problem the label is off centre to much and does not ring true to me somehow, all the Monart labels I have seen are pretty much centred.

Label is a bit odd!

You will be interested (or not) to hear that I will soon be able to study the lopsided label on this weight.
I have checked the labels on some of my other Monarts and in at least two cases they are also lopsided.
The older weights seem to have more central printing.

Can anyone tell me why the clock is one hour out???????????

It's come out in sympathy with such an off-centred Monart label. ;D
... but seriously, it suspect it's a Microsoft glitch, of the type that never gets admitted to but sometime later a Windows Update does a patch. I have corrected my clock at least three times in the past two weeks. It could have something to do with changes in the various daylight savings settings and some places, like the UK, being updated too early. Maybe when daylight saving really happens it will be back to normal?
Back to the labels ... the one on my Inkwell (signed and dated 1946) and shown in this link (http://www.btinternet.com/~kevh.glass/pages/paul-ysart/signed/Detail008.htm) is also off-centred. Not too clear in that page, but the outer section is quite well "shifted" with much space toward the top.
