Any of you who have read Decembers edition of Brummagem Magazine will have read my article on The Mystery of The Missing Trophy Bowl. For those of you who have not read it, in brief, My Grandfather in 1964 oversaw the maunufacture of a Silver Trophy bowl which at the time was considered to be the largest in the World. He worked for A E Edwards Silversmith based in Pemberton Street, Hockley. The Trophy was commisioned by philanthropist Sir David James and was eventually presented to the Welsh League of Youth, as an eisteddfod trophy.
I am trying to trace this Trophy, not now knowing its whereabouts although a family member did hear at one time it may have been in the possession of a Rugby Club in Aberystwyth.
If anyone can pass any light on this Trophy or its whereabouts I would be delighted to hear from you.
