Hi
My grandfather has just passed away and I have inherited his much loved print, which has been hanging above the dining table for as long as I can remember.
He was very passionate about the print as he went to all the steam engine rallys possible in the past. The picture was bought for him by his wife in 1966/1967 in a small shop in Gillingham, Kent. The story they always told was that he was a fairly new, local artist and I wondered if this was true.
Mine has the sticker on the back saying it is Steam at Dawn and also a sticker from the print company in Kent.
