My guess is that the signwriter had no stencil for h and used the stencils for 1 and made up their own H - see the top of the L, I would expect the tops of the H to be the same style if it really was an H. It was on the Sandringham estate. You would expect their signwriter to have a surplus of Hs for HRH. He had an “m”…… half of it would be an “n”…. which when added to the “1” ….would have created a half decent lowercase “h”. Sloppy workmanship ____________________ Eric

Eric wrote: I see your point on the costs….and I am sure the latest Nikons do match or improve to some extent on models like the D850. My point is more that I no longer need or hanker for all the whizz and bang capabilities that manufacturers are now adding to cameras. Sad though it may be, to some extent I have lost a lot of my passion and drive for “going out to take photos”. Now… it’s taking any lightweight camera with me when I go out to do other things just in case. In that scenario, having an expensive top of the range camera is pointless overkill. A camera that feels good in the hand, is compact, that I understand and takes decent snaps is all I need. I have to admit that I don't always have the enthusiasm I once did. I still carry two cameras and shoot lots but sometimes I just want to watch. I haven't seriously considered mirrorless, I don't need most of what Nikon have put into the Z9 and certainly not at current used prices. Maybe when the Z9 II arrives...

No the leat that supplied the water from the river via a sluice was ceased in the 1930s but I can pump water from the river (St Austell river - White river) in front of house but only if the river is in full stream after a lot of rain. ____________________ Still learning after all these years! https://nikondslr.uk/gallery_view.php?user=2&folderid=none
