I have to say that I have not seen that kind of decoration on a bobbin
before. The drilled or burnt holes of the name and then the dye being
removed or not allowed to get to the letters.(Latter I would guess)
Does anyone have other examples that they may have of this please?
Brown or Wright come to mind as makers, but neither jump out and hit you as
a maker as there are features of both on the bobbin. I would like to see
the row of drilled holes that are on the opposite of the name, a little
more clearly.
I would be interested in seeing a few pictures of these if anyone could send
them to me please.
I have to say that although I have been privileged to see and have access to
some excellent collections of bobbins, there still some surprises that come
my way.
Many thanks
Brian and Jean from Cooranbong, Australia
