Abstract
Three trade cards of Hull and Beverley gunmakers including that of John Blanch Jnr who arrived from London, to occupy 26 Silver street, in 1833. Three years later he was in Hobart, Tasmania, using the same trade card with amended address. He was succeeded by Samuel Mozeen a former apprentice of George Wallis; his Silver street trade card was already in the Hull Museum collection but the new acquisition has his original Mytongate address. Both Blanch and Mozeen supplied shooting requisites to Burton Constable Hall. The card of William Taylor, Market Place Beverley, established c. 1813 is decorated with masonic symbols. Both he and Blanch supplied airguns and crossbows as well as firearms.
