Wooow...impressive. If all these will be solved here, the database started here will have huge referencial value!  Quote:
look forward to studying them at some point in my collecting career Skilo, if you get to that point it might result in some nice exhibition pages. Very nice material  |

Thanks for the compliment and words of encouragement Wadmalatz, very kind of you!  Thank-you to Rod222 for creating a database, that is fantastic! Here is a list of the ones I have shown that I believe have yet to be added to the list created by Rod222. I hope I have followed the correct format so it can be easily added to the database.    Page 1: gb BASS gb L&Co Ld gb W&H S gb PBB &Co gb ULS Page 2: gb MoC gb MoC repeater Page 3: gb SB SA gb ND FS gb LB gb AE gb CO TEW (reversed) gb B&C L gb MBC (?) Page 4: gb G gb A Ld gb WK &Co gb LEM CO gb SP &S Page 5: gb GHL gb SLD gb B&F L gb HD &W (upsidedown) gb DrB Page 6: gb G &S gb LMC Ld gb L&Co Ld Here is another, this time on a taxed cover from my 1d. Downey Head collection:   The perfin is gb MU IC, here is a scan of the back to confirm this one to be from The Motor Union Insurance Company:  Have a Good One, Skilo54 |

A/Ld - 10/7,7 - if the letters are 5mm high - is from either Addressograph Ltd, London NW10 or Aerators Ltd - or if the letters are 4.5mm high - Aquascutum Ltd, 100 Regent St. London W (but this last one was in use around 1925 which is probably too late for this stamp).
AE - 10,10 - Anglo-Egyptian Bank Ltd |

Hi Rodney, Why do you call the G F Redfern & Co. perfin an official perfin? I see that G F Redfern & Co. merged with Baron & Warren to become Baron Warren Redfern: http://www.bwr-ip.co.uk/ |

Hi Nigel. Quote:

Because it is unknown to me whether it has been established it has been attributed to the Patent Office or not. It has been adjudged "official" until further notice. Redfern may have been acting under royal licence? Both sources of information is hearesay to me, I can adjust later perhaps. This is the Perfin Society's take on the puncture....  |
