This was also purchased on my spree at Chesterfield.

Its purpose is obvious, and it's very nicely made!

All the details one could possibly want seem to be present on the label: But I have drawn a complete blank regarding the Manufacturer, the Brand Name, the Provisional Patent, and the supplying dealer.

Over to you, fellow investigators … I must be losing my touch

Thanks, Sam

Liquidated in 1959 … so the minor rust spots are perhaps to be expected !!
