Beale & Son..


Recommended Posts

I have just acquired a rather nice Lachenal 20-button C/G Anglo, serial No. 67698.

 

The label on the right hand end reads:

 

Manufactured for

Beale & Son

34 Rathbone Place

Oxford St. W.

 

Now, I tracked down information about:

 

Cramer, Addison & Beale, 210 Regent st

Cramer, Beale & Chappell, ditto

Cramer, Beale & Wood, ditto

 

but I failed to find anything about Beale & Son.

 

Can any of you knowledgeable folks out there supply any information?

 

Incidentally, the box that came with it has a label for:

 

J. J. Vickers & Sons Ltd., 80 & 82 Royal Hill, Greenwich, London SE10

 

so I guess the box is from a different 'tina...

 

Thanks.

Vickers were dealers and repairers (established 1887, & Sons from c.1925) carrying on until the 1950s. So the box might be original.
