Label is characteristic of C L Wilde but with illegible initials - EAS or similar??

[Roger Horton]

The 'E' looks a bit like that used by Edward Brown Bishop (see 317116) who has a few specimens from Northants in the 1930s.

I see what you mean, and he's closely associated with C L Wilde; BUT that style of E was common, and the initials don't actually look to me like EBB.
