Topic: Brady & Jordan, Liverpool

[Chris Harrison]

I have a couple of retro vases with the above inscription printed on the base.
They're very cool, but I have no idea about Brady & Jordan.  When I google, I just get 1970s footballers.

Anyone know anything about them?

Thanks.

Never seen one before and never heard of Brady & Jordan, A retailer perhaps? 

Limited to 30 do you think? What's the number on the other one?

[Anne]

I was thinking of retailers as well. I wonder if Sue C might know of them - she's a Liverpool lass originally.

[Chris Harrison]

Has to be a limited edition mark.  That's all I can think of.

Here's t'other one.  I had to get it out of the loft.  No numbers.

I thought of decorators and retailers, as well as potters.  Can't find anything as yet.  I even thought that Liam Brady and Joe Jordan might have opened an arty-farty boutique together, except they were never on footy teams in the same part of the country :-)

Mebbe need to find a Scouse trading (or phone) directory from the 60s.

Crikey, this *is* a tough one Chris! I've been searching using every parameter I can think of and found nothing helpful. Let me think on it a bit more - I might come up with an idea after some sleep!

[Lustrousstone]

I can't find anything either 

[Anne]

I've asked in the genealogy community if anyone's come across a firm with this name in Liverpool - will keep you posted.

[Sue C]

Nope, never heard of them, but will do a little digging.

All i can find is this but not much help really...

and it seems the logo has changed ebay 300226221805

That logo looks much more modern than Chris's one. I wonder if they are still around? 

Genealogy folks didn't turn up anything either other than a suggestion to check old phone books / trade directories or contact the Liverpool Archives Office.
