So if what they say is true, wouldn't this date from between 1891-1908? Greg, what do you think of the above quote? Also, the word "WEDGWOOD" is in a serif font, which they say was used until 1929 when the sans serif font was adopted. [URL]http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/w/wedgwoodj.html[/URL][/QUOTE]
