I'm hoping someone can tell me what I have, whether it's a magnificent
find or just another paperweight.
I've obtained a printing block. That's probably the incorrect
terminology. It's a block that Nicholson would have sent out to a
printer, for use in a printing press. It's hand engraved, in reverse.
The image looks to be a horse drawn hay rake.
On the side of the block is the name Hare & Co., London. They are
obviously the manufacturer of the block.
The image is not identifiable with the naked eye, but a magnifyW. N. Nicholson & Son
Newark On Trent
England
Is Nicholson farming equipment rare or common? Does anyone know who
has the remaining Nicholson engine?
Thanks for your insight,
Rob
