Dear All, Now I am getting myself all excited because as I was sorting out all my Honiton bobbin files and genres I THINK I have discovered a railway engine, complete with coal tender and some form of carriage (not for people) but a container truck. I have no date, BUT I may have scrounged

[lace] Sorry.. I gave one wrong title.

The 1662 "title" is wrong. It should be Englands oldest dated bobbin. It is 5 pages long. I think you will find it as it is one article in a series as I have found "older" bobbins. https://www2.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/lace.html#webdocs I do beg your pardon. Brian
