I have the weight, not sure it is the right one as base of weight is not marked.
That`s why I was interested to know if anyone had a photo of this weight so I could compare.

Hi - I'm interested in verifying this attribution as well - for the Caithness catalogue on Scotland's Glass.
There is a website "Butlins Memories", where I have enquired. The person running that page couldn't help, but recommended to ask their forum. Would you like to join that forum and ask - or should I try that route? In this case I would need a picture of the weight as well.
Best regards - Wolf
