GENERAL INFORMATION. The seventh and final pair of a series of popular couples (see SML-285).  The pair was the combination of Baston's 1947 Shakespearean couple (SML-77 and SL-78) mounted on an ornate base.  This couple alone was not continued by Lance and is by far the rarest design in the series.

From Dr. Glenn Johnson's book, The Sebastian Miniature Collection.
