A correspondent working a music manuscript of Tayner Taylor (1747-1825) has written to ask me about a paper stock in the MS. The watermark, which occurs at the fore-edge of a (presumably quarto) leaf is "S & Co." He wonders if it might be from the Chambersburg, PA mill recorded by Gravell and Miller. I have placed a scan of his faxed tracing at http://ebbs.english.vt.edu/watermarks/s&co.html In the hopes that someone on this list might be more knowledgable about this than I. Thanks for any help you might provide. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dan Mosser <dmosser@vt.edu> Dept. of English VOICE: (540) 231-7797 Virginia Tech FAX: (540) 231-5692 Blacksburg, VA 24061-0112 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
