It is not known if this bookmark is signed on the reverse, although very few of these " SOUVENIR " bookmarks are signed.

There is an almost identical bookmark to the one above [sb1876], which is still attached to the stiff backing paper with the STEVENS printed name, so it is reasonable to assume this version too was woven by STEVENS.
The difference in design is that the sb1876 version has the name " MACHINERY HALL " woven below the building, whilst these words are missing from the version above.
