Hi all, I am trying amongst other things to compile a database of small-ish local British framebuilders , the small shop type thing such as E.Allens in Ripley Derbyshire,J.Fothergill of Liverpool etc. I would like details such as when they opened/closed are they still going, what type of machines made , annual production, location of premises etc. I have to press around 250 different names of framebuilders active between 1930-1980, but I am sure there are many more in some cases all I have is a name off a frame so everything and anything is usefull ,photo's of a machine and transfers would also be useful .
