L&YR Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Vesta
Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Vesta
Refreshment Department
Inside an advert for Exchange Station Hotel, Liverpool.
On the back is stamped Bryant & May's Wax Vestas although this is quite rubbed.
Originally this vesta would have been silver plated but most of that has long gone. You can just see some of its remains on the photos.
The hinge is still good although the lid does not fit tightly anymore.
Approximate dimensions: 4.4cm x 3cm, weight 9.7 grams.
The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway (L&YR) was a major British railway company before the 1923 Grouping. It was incorporated in 1847 from an amalgamation of several existing railways. It was the third-largest railway system based in northern England (after the Midland and North Eastern Railways).
This vesta would date back to the late 19th/early 20th century.
