This #VersatileMetal, a blend of tin and other elements like copper and antimony, has been used for centuries to craft beautiful and functional items.   #Pewter’s #Timeless appeal and adaptability make it a must-have in any collection.   tinyurl.com/m3kje75d

Our Master welcomed members of the #AldersgateWardClub to our #Hall for their traditional ceremony of #BeatingTheBoundsOfTheWard.   This ancient custom traditionally involves swatting local landmarks with branches to maintain a shared mental map of the geographic boundaries.

During this period the #Company would continue to dine at various venues throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. The company still has several menus for these dinners such as the one pictured above (and as the background) from 1921. tinyurl.com/2shud58m
