Hi Linda
There is quite a selection of pins there of different lengths and weights
when you look closely. Almost certainly there are some 'lacemakers'
(sometimes called Long Toms) pins there.
I've collected a number of examples, mounted them on a board and displayed
them in exhibitions - I can send you a scan if your interested. There's some
information in the Luton Museum book by Charles Freeman - Pillow Lace in the
East Midlands.
