The Common Room / Re: Waterlow & Sons (Printers)
« on: Thursday 24 February 11 09:10 GMT (UK) »
I have a small press which has what I thought may be the makers badge, marked Waterlow & Sons London, but after finding this thread it may be an owners badge or they did make their own tooling and at least one item has survived.
I have taken some pictures of it and placed them at

The badge is pictured below. It had a repaint at some time in the past and that paint layer is chipped showing a typical black with gold lining that printing presses were in the old days.
