<p>[QUOTE="afantiques, post: 72557, member: 25"]This hallmarked 4 ounce, 5 inch high cup is adorned with the emblem of the Edinburgh & District Motor Club Ltd. I assume the motto is Scots for hard forward, or in other words, full speed ahead. The style is a bit unusual for generic 'cups', they are usually more classical. Hallmark is about 1920, I will check that. (It is Birmingham 1927/8, 1903 seems a bit too early.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Not for the scrapheap,as I rather like the shape.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]18796[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
