I found some back issues of The Finial that discuss early examples of the Hanoverian pattern, previously written about on this blog here. In the November/December 2007 issue (3), Mr. Christopher Meade wrote in about a spoon which he dates to 1702/1703 with a Hanoverian terminal, and asks for readers' feedback. Mr. David Whitbread (15), Mr. Walter Brown (16), and Mr. Mark Nevard (17) responded in the January/February 2008 issue. Finally, in the March/April 2008 issue, Mr. Richard Jonas provided a photograph of a Hanoverian-pattern single-ended marrow scoop with the date letter for 1708 (13).
