Ward and Payne’s , David Ward’s customers having apparently told him that his Sheffield workmen could not make the quality of tools seen in London In 1870, Samuel J. Addis, still working in London, passes away and the rights to the S.J. Addis trademark are bought by Ward & Payne of Sheffield who begin to mark their "Celebrated London Pattern Carving Tools" with the S.J. Addis name and the Ward and Payne crossed hammers and anvil trademark. These tools were probably being made by J.B. Addis. These tools date from that date and subsequently and are marked S J Addis / W & P in various forms according to age . I date these tools based on the above information and the tools are sold in good faith using my best knowledge and information available , you are responsible for inspecting images and coming to your own conclusions. Unusual to find a fine clean set of tools so accurately dateable and hence historically important ! Sorry to see these go .
