I have discovered that I am now the proud owner of a Silver Cross Harewood pram. It is an "aubergine" or burgundy colour and the interior is a matching burgundy with little white flowers. I was told it dated from the 1960's. there is one spot on the interior where the liner has been rubbed and needs repair. Any ideas would be welcome. Any further info on this beauty would also be appreciated. thanks, vikki

Hello Ed
I've just restored a Lloyd pram which was made in Birmingham in about 1935. It has a wooden body, with 4 x 14" wheels. It's not the Lloyd Loom type of pram which is totally different.
Is Lloyd the makers name or the name of the shop who retailed the pram? Is there any other mark by the name you have found?
Regards
Pat

Hello,
My great uncle William Albert Notman and Albert Henry Greenwood seem to have started The Baby carriage company that produced,eventually,the Manton pram. As you can see it is almost the reverse of Notman. At this time it may have become the Notman company.
If anyone has further info on the company or pictures of the prams they made i would be very gratefull if you could pass some onto me.
regards

Hello, I'm from the U.S. and I just acquired a beautiful pram today. I would love for someone to help me identify what it is and who made it etc.? It appears to be turn of the century, made of wood with porcelain hand bar. Anyone can email me directly at retromods@hotmail.com, thanks for the help....

Hello I was Helen at the Calligraphy, Quilling and Folk Art Table at Holy Trinity Church today Saturday 10th September. Just have to say how great it was seeing all your wonderful prams and the Ladies in your costumes simply fantastic. For my boys I had a Silver Cross(1979)Navy Blue pram which you could remove the body f(which I put in the car)and the wheeels went in the boot. Bought from Silver Cross, Hull which is still there. Best wishes for the future. Look forward to seeing you there next year?

Hi Since a child I have always been interested in coahbuilt prams and in the 1930's used to look out for them in front gardens as we drove by.
When I had my first child in 1961 I had a Durham Rose SX pram which we used to detach and put body and baby on back seat and wheels on top of car.I now ar nearly 80 have a vintage SX dolls pram of my own..which I always wanted as a child and a vintage Durham Rose,

Hi. We have a lovely twin pram by Millsons in need of restoration and I am wondering if there is anyone out there who might be interested in buying it as a restoration investment? I think it may be 40s or 50s, it may be a Prince but does not say on the pram. I have used it happily with my two children and although completely functional it is needing some love and attention! I can send photos if anyone is interested either in buying it or in helping to identify it!
