[QUOTE="thevoyager, post: 4456694, member: 63561"]Yes I would love to know the story behind it, was this made for a special lady (who is on the cover).. The gentleman told me on the market that his dad was given it by his own dad, so it has been in the family for the many generations. But dated to 1902... This family is from Heptonstall, near Hebden Bridge, Yorkshire, so back then there was more money in Yorkshire than anywhere else in the world. It was the centre (possibly declining centre) of the industrial revolution by 1902.[/QUOTE]
