<p>[QUOTE="Touchdry, post: 1067601, member: 12381"]Peggie Foy is known for her twee fairytale figurines. Indeed there is a Pathe News item on the 1951 Festival of Britain, in which she is shown as just one of many Brit creatives to export her wares! (Watch the news item and listen to that accent!! <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https%3A%2F%2Fm.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DQ_i-UvGtGXw&ved=2ahUKEwj5w6LP-6PlAhWHJFAKHWDsCaEQwqsBMAB6BAgEEAQ&usg=AOvVaw0ZzZX7F3VM3aoIzJF2MxKZ&fbclid=IwAR27oIKxzew4vEdlISEXzI33NnBguPGTt-ORmTNxkg7tOLess9cM0k7IV_g" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https%3A%2F%2Fm.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DQ_i-UvGtGXw&ved=2ahUKEwj5w6LP-6PlAhWHJFAKHWDsCaEQwqsBMAB6BAgEEAQ&usg=AOvVaw0ZzZX7F3VM3aoIzJF2MxKZ&fbclid=IwAR27oIKxzew4vEdlISEXzI33NnBguPGTt-ORmTNxkg7tOLess9cM0k7IV_g" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j...</a></p><p><br /></p><p>...

Please correct me on any of the above ... for all I know she probably made thousands of bowls ... its just I haven't seen any. What do you think? Oh, and if you are a collector of her stuff then you will find this on ebay soon!![/QUOTE]
