The T Briggs posting made me curious about an umbrella of mine. The silver mountings are fairly plain, and they're on an umbrella I bought in London about forty years ago. The umbrella itself is a Fox frame that I had put on the handle which was in good shape. After so many years, I have no way of knowing if the beat and well worn frame it came with was original. I'm curious to know who the silversmith or umbrella maker might be.

J. Howell also entered a mark at Birmingham in January of 1909.
