Title: Error in Cottle for Sowerby design registration bundle RDs 370370-379, 1881.
Post by: agincourt17 on December 04, 2014, 02:50:58 PM

I’ve recently noticed an error on page 104 of Simon Cottle’s “Sowerby - Gateshead Glass” - the design registration bundle for RDs 370370 to 370379 is given a registration date of 21 May 1881.

The correct registration date for this bundle is, in fact, 21 SEPTEMBER 1881 – Parcel 16, as given by Slack, Thompson, Lattimore, and at http://www.great-glass.co.uk/glass%20notes/lozenge6.htm

Fred.

thanks for letting us know Fred  -  I certainly hadn't spotted the error.
