Hello everyone! I have this beautiful coffee cup with silver from 1940. Does anyone know this maker LR&S? Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I think L R & S of Sheffield has not been identified so far.
Yes, they were active in the forties.

This X is 1965. As AG2012 says we don't yet have an identification for LR&S.

Thank you for your help and your time. Why do you think it is 1965? In all of my books, it says it is 1940.
