Some time ago I acquired a price list issued by a W. E. E Charter of Tattingstone, Ipswich.
There's no date to the list but it does include a series of testimonials from previous customers including one who'd won a queen in a competition. All of them are dated 1908 or early 1909 which suggests that the list was probably printed for the 1909 season; it can't have been before then and presumably you'd either include relatively recent feedback or not publish the date it was left at all.
I've got a local historian trying to find some reference but thought I'd also throw it out here, anyone know anything about this beekeeper?
