Three beautifully engine turned powder compacts. Each hallmared but in need of restoration. Its a shame but they probably end up in the melting pot.

Those are nice, and a lot of people collect them Collectables59, it would be a shame to melt them, because they usually sell for over melt! Thanks for showing! :^)
A bit of restoration to be done on these ones.
1.Turner & Simpson Ltd (from c1923),Legge Lane, Birmingham.
Date letter Z for 1949
2.John Henry Wynn, Hylton Street, Birmingham
Date letter G for 1931
In the middle, on the right.Date letter B and anchor for Birmingham.Made in 1923 (Birmingham) but maker`s mark is out of focus.
To IVAN49 the blurred one is H & HLd. The d is smaller, I presume the LD is for limited ?
Hasset & Harper Ltd.Birmingham.Date letter matches the period of their activity.
New one on me. Neil
