can anyone tell me what this means please
James Dixon & Sons - Sheffield
“The “Trumpet and Banner” identifies without doubt Dixon’s production. It is a fundamental element to prevent mistakes with the marks “JD & S” used by another Sheffield manufacturer, James Deakin & Sons”.
Except that this is Deakin’s table lamp trademark, not Dixon’s trumpet & banner.
"… to prevent mistakes with the marks “JD & S” used by another Sheffield manufacturer, James Deakin & Sons”.
No comment.
P.S.
Do you think I’m an idiot and a half-wit? I like a laconic and sparse message because then I appeal to the recipient’s intelligence. I can’t stand intellectual laziness. I know, I base myself on, among other things, your discoveries and hard work, but that doesn’t mean that I and my efforts can be discredited. I wrote once before - if I’m inconvenient here, unnecessary, I’m a threat (sic!) - write. I won’t cut myself, I won’t commit seppuku. God, like children…
