It's on a grandfather clock dial that's in the family.
Please scan photos at 300dpi or higher. Thank you.

Thanks for the link but I don't want to know the date because I already know that. What I would like to know is the name of the maker on the dial.
Please scan photos at 300dpi or higher. Thank you.

That's fascinating jamjar, shame none of those Birmingham dial makers look like they fit the bill.

Yes, is an interesting page. It does say that the name on the face isn't the dial maker.

Someone will come up with the first letters of the name. I also was thinking greave for the end part.

Jamjar.

If it's Hargreaves, the two "r" s are very different. What about Halgreaves?
