Signed: "THOMAS STEVENS (COVENTRY) Ltd" on back at pointed end:
There are two version of this bookmark, with a very small difference. In the version above, the " M " of " MOURN " is upright, whilst in the other version, recorded as sb2636, the " M " is rounded. The image on the left above, with the black background coloured silk, was kindly donated by Graham Parker. Apart from the colour variation, this bookmark is important in the following regard:- Stevens logo on the reverse pointed end of the black background bookmark, being "T. STEVENS COVENTRY AND LONDON ", instead of the later "THOMAS STEVENS (COVENTRY) Ltd" normally associated with this design.
