Hello everyone again, and Jean N. oops and here I thought Jean had found another article from the one first pointed out to me (I'll go hide for awhile, shall I?). In any case, my thanks are still the same ;) For anyone who cares to know the full saga of 'this' Lacemaker, I 'inherited' a framed copy of the Colin Carr illustration published in 'This England' in 1970 (can be viewed at the Lace Fairy website, in the gallery, at 'lace art' - picture 8 I think, or thereabouts). I don't know if the previous owner had framed it, or someone else - the page has tack marks in the corners, so must have been displayed on a wall, before it was put into a simple frame. Tucked in behind the backing-cardboard is an article about bobbin lace in England. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the subject, in one way or another, I now have further reference information for the next owner. The 'inheritance' was by chance - a lace acquaintance mentioned my name in passing to someone helping her move. When she passed away, the helper remembered. I stored it for some years, have found a new owner for it. Both re-rendered 'portraits' of this lacemaker are fun. A shame we don't know who was in the original photo?
