<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 268943, member: 59&quot;]<i>Pewter Wares From Sheffield</i> by Jack L Scott gives the following information on James Allan:</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;James Allan worked from 1849 to 1872. His address was Wicker St. from 1849 to 1851 and Andrew St from 1851 to 1855. In 1855 the &quot;&amp; Co&quot; was dropped from the name and the firm moved to Johnson Lane. (My note: This change is accompanied by the original mark (James Allan &amp; Co, in an arch shape over Sheffield and the later mark which matches the one on your pot.)&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Scott goes on to note that &quot;this firm should not be confused with James Allen &amp; Co (note the different spelling) which manufactured silver and plated wares from 1889 to 1960.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
