I have discovered that the address I offered for Tippers is no longer valid. However, the following may well be the updated version as it is not too far distant from the last; also, the gentleman there to whom I spoke in 1991 said that he was approaching retirement: Peter Tipper, Signmakers, 33, Pur...
