:angel: Wasn't sure where to Post this :-\ gained from another 'List":

Following the recent postings re Birmingham artists, I've resurrected part
of a posting I made a couple of years ago..‚.. I'd.‚.. still really like to pass
on copies of my little paintings if anyone recognises names.

>I inherited a very attractive version of an autograph book..‚.. Instead of a
>signature, each page has a signed watercolour, charcoal sketch or drawing.
>Some of them are really very good.

If anyone recognises any of the names below, most likely from Birmingham,and
maybe with a tenuous connection to SPENCER, I'd be happy to send a copy of
their page from my book.

The owner of the book was Elsie SPENCER born.‚.. Aston/Birmingham 1880 d George
SPENCER & Emily(TREVOR).

Just thought it could be of interest to some of you.
 
I've only just subscribed to this site, so a bit late replying to this thread. My great grandfather was John Owens, a watercolourist, and the date 1912 would have been in his time.
