Re: A vintage button boot with `real' antiquing

There was a great London firm called Joseph Box, later taken over by Gundry & Co (they in turn taken over by Lobb in the 1950s) and some of their stitching ran at 20 stitches to the centimetre. Examples of their work are in the Powerhouse Museum, Australia: http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/collection/database/?irn=135865

- down  your way Shooey!! Probably worth a visit...

Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.
