Body Stamps
Their whistles are marked at times with a 2 digits number of model type number but a catalog of their whistles is yet to be found.
Many of their whistles are unmarked but can be identified by design & identification features that are typical of this manufacturer.
Most of the stamps are on small metal over labels ;
- ' Stevens & Sons Manufacturers London & Glasgow '
- ' Porteous Whistle '
- ' Stevens & Sons Porteous whistle Southwark. B' Road '
- ' Knox's Improved Police Call '
- 'The Cyclist Road Clearer H.A.K.& Co.'.
- Some General service whistles stamped "Stevens & Sons London & Glasgow" were actually made by Hudson after 1900 .

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or stamps:
“Tobacco, divine, rare, superexcellent tobacco, which goes far beyond all the panaceas, potable gold, and philosophers’ stones, a sovereign remedy to all diseases ... but as it is commonly abused by most men, which take it as tinkers do ale, ‘tis a plague, a mischief, a violent purger of goods, lands, health; hellish, devilish and damned tobacco, the ruin and overthrow of body and soul.”
—Robert Burton (1577–1640)
“In Stamps the segregation was so complete that most Black children didn’t really, absolutely know what whites looked like.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
