    Default Geo Wostenholm Age?

    I just got an old George Wostenholm and Sons that I'm gonna try to clean up, and I was wondering if there is any way to tell approximately when it was made. It is about 15/16 near the toe, and had a lead wedge in wooden scales (which I have no idea if are original). I will likely upgrade the scales

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    How I received it:




    After knocking the rust off:

    Nice!

    Wostenholme opperated out of Washington Works from 1848 to 1978, lack of England stamped indicates it was made pre 1890. So between 1848 and 1890.

    Thank you. That’s what I was looking for. Much appreciated.
