| | | (Note Bollans were recorded in business directories as wholesalers of stationery, and in at least one newspaper, it was additionally reported that they wove bookmarks on their own loom. Many of the silk bookmarks recorded here are identical to those of Welch & Lenton, so it is possible the actual weaving was shared between the two.) |
| | | (Note too that Godden drew upon, and consolidated, various advertisements of Bollans. The description given by Godden was hence restricted by the limited wording used in those advertisement. Whilst potential inconsistencies are being systematically eliminated from the index below, there may nevertheless be duplication between Goddens description and the more accurate title derived from actual images of the bookmarks concerned.) |
