If you mean Kenny from Fakenham then yes it was he always said if he ever parted with it he would let us know but then swapped it for a piece furniture! We collect all things Fakenham so am trying to track it down.

I've hounded him for it over the years to! The only thing I have is Long & Beck double sided enamel. If I hear anything about the Humber Cycles, I'll give you a shout.

Cheers for that.  We haven't got the Long and Beck sign but should be getting one from Billy who works in Kennys shop. Are you local to Fakenham?

I'm between Fakenham & Dereham...do you buy and sell enamels or only collect Fakenham related bits?

We mainly collect all bottles from Norfolk but also collect anything Fakenham and any local advertising etc we find. My dad who also collects is the Milkman around Mileham gressenhall beetley litcham etc. Do you just collect signs?

Your dad then delivers my milk! We live in Mileham and have a few early soda bottles on the kitchen window which he commented on. I only collect enamels and anything to so with Stephens Inks. Our last place was an old pub and we pulled out tons of stuff when working on the garden. Most decent bits have gone and I think a lot of the stuff was Bullards.

Do you know Steve Bale from Mileham who is also a bottle collector? I think i can remeber dad saying about someone who collects stephens ink stuff. Me and dad share a collection and he's as much a collector as me!

Nothing to do with me. Just read this thread and then found it on there on my daily browse.
