Good morrow all, i trust you are well.
I thought identifying the maker of this jug would be simple, but I'm struggling to make out the lettering (which may be L W).
Can anybody please help me identify this mark?
Thank you.
Jack.

Hi Naomi, thank you for this.
It's difficult isn't it?
I'm going to try and take a better picture to make it clearer.

Might toothpaste make a dark mark clearer? Reverse of Marmite?

Toothpaste and Marmite? Whatever happened to flour and fag-ash? Big Laughter

Hi all.
Great suggestions, but eventually went for the lard and vinegar approach.
Does this image help any? Still can't find an example anywhere.
Jack.
