ED 3011 - ED 3011 / 22949 Levesley Bros was listed in 1862 as a cutlery manufacturer in Central Works, West Street. The partners were Charles, William, and Thomas (born in 1821, 1826, and 1831, respectively). Charles was working in his own right by 1849 as pearl carver and dressing case instrument manufacturer in Orchard Lane. He was amongst the most skilled carvers in the trade. John Hinchliffe and Joseph Rodgers & Sons are said to have relied upon him to carve the pearl handles of their display knives for the Great Exhibition in 1851. The firm had a London showroom by the 1890s, when the business was briefly restyled as Levesley Bros & Lloyd. Levesley’s partnership with William Lloyd terminated in 1893. Levesley Bros continued at Central Works in Mary Street. After 1918, Thomas and William Charles were still listed as the partners in directories. Thomas died at Western Bank on 2 October 1924, aged 94. The firm declared bankruptcy in 1929. It was listed briefly at 203 Arundel Street until the early 1930s. Their trade marks included ‘CLEAN SHAVE’ on razors, with a picture of a batsman taking guard (later used by Joseph Allen); and a sea shell with the word ‘FORWARD’ (later acquired by E.M. Dickinson) (see page 375 of Tweedale’s Directory of Sheffield Cutlery Manufacturers 1740-2013 Revised & Expanded 2nd Edition).

**VERY RARE**1801 Dated Irish Dublin His Majesties Mail Coach Guard’s Brass Barrelled Flintlock Blunderbuss By Teray Dublin With Matching Coach Or Weapon Number B/9. Sn 22902 - 22902 The early 18th century saw the introduction of regular public horse drawn stage coaches in Ireland with one of the 1st recorded services operating between Dublin & Kilkenny in 1728. Dublin mail coaches in the 1800s became part of a sophisticated network for mail and passenger transport, operating on routes to major Irish towns and across the Irish Sea to mainland Great Britain. These Royal Mail coaches, introduced to Ireland in 1789, were reliable services with standardized livery, though independent contractors ran them for the General Post Office. The Mail coach journeys were particularly hazardous as highway men and outlaw gangs would take any opportunity they could to rob Royal Mail transports. To counter attacks Mail Coach guards were armed with pistols and Blunderbusses. The mail service evolved with improved roads, the introduction of timetabled services in the 1820s, and by the mid-1800s, the transport of mail was increasingly taken over by the new railway system. An Irish Gunmaker named only as Teray is recorded working in Dublin circa 1790 (see page 95 of English Irish & Scottish Firearms Makers by Carey). This is an excellent very rare original brass barrelled Dublin Mail Guards flintlock blunderbuss by Teray. It is 29” overall with a bell mouth 14” long brass 2 cannon barrel. The barrel has crisp proofs, hand engraved ‘B/9’ most likely either a weapon or Mail Coach number which is repeated on the shoulder stock and is engraved ‘Dublin Mail 1801’. The muzzle opening is 1 ½” wide. The smooth bore has staining & residue consistent with age & use. A nice feature of this gun is that the rim of the muzzle is engraved ‘***HIS MAJESTIES MAIL*** It has a steel lock signed by the maker ‘Teray’, cock fitted with flint, all original Walnut full stock which has just knocks bumps and bruising consistent with age & coaching use. The wood has chequered grip panels at the wrist. It has brass mounts including butt plate with extended tang, trigger guard with extended tang & ram rod flutes.
