......40..Year..Medal....


The opening of the first teashop in 1894 was commemorated 40 years after by the striking of a special commemorative medal. Only 100 were struck. Each director received one as did four original shareholder, customers who had patronised the Piccadilly teashop in 1894 on its opening day and members of staff who had completed 40 years service with the company. This one was awarded to George Dee who was a director.
