Thank you to all who gave me help on this project.
I am pretty certain that I have them all now.
I had hoped that the Springetts would have published all their bobbin
collection as a "Coffee Table" book, but I suspect it would have been an
expensive volume.
I have to say that they have fetched good prices, possibly inflated a little
because of their provenance. The sale notes are just great, so detailed so
"Springett"
I am still looking for picture donations of decorated East Devon bobbins
(Honiton) inscriptions or just decorations. Please.
Your cheeky friend
Brian. :)
PS I am also finding it hard to get pictures of decorated Downton bobbins.
I think they are like hens teeth! It s a great pity because they have some
really old dates inscribed on them.
You will know that I do not publish commercially.
