That's very interesting indeed. I'd looked at the photo on Dickon Love's site, and couldn't for the life fo me work out who might have made it, as it bears no real resemblance to the work of any of the well-known manufacturers of the time. I did wonder whether Dent had had a hand in it.

Thanks for the info.
