The picture remains in original though

giving the piece some feeling of age and authenticity and the overall patina is pleasing

There is a square of discolouration to the reverse where there was obviously a trade sign placed on it which has since been removed so the mahogany to this small section is of a different colour

with some related ephemera

sometimes called “Queen Victoria's Hands”

followed in 1944 by his son

were just that

with some marks to the top
