Can't get enough of theseĀ š To be fair, "English Whispler" is in the title of the thread, but I have heard the name before - not sure where it comes from though. Hopefully, someone will have more to say about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenb Posted July 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2021 Thanks all , Iām pretty sure Whispler is a nickname from collectors. These may or may not have been produced by the Irene company in London and found in CODEG boxes.

Please correct me if Iāve said anything incorrect or you have further information.Ā I knew I had seen multiple posts on these. Stephen is quite correct. I copied this from AAM, here's just one link on them, they're are multiple. There was some dispute for a long time on these, all that was agreed upon was of foreign manufacture.
