Simpson's made brushes for John Bull. Yours is a pre-Vulfix Chubby 2. Great looking brush you have there.

+1. Great brush. I'm a sucker for the "imperfect" and faded print on these old brushes. They've got a lot of character. Enjoy!

A legendary brush and it seems in excellent shape, too! What a gem!

Looks like I now know what kind of knot to buy for my first restoration.

Cool find,
