Advertisements published in the press kept the public informed about some of second-hand pieces available. In 1930 those included, among others, a walnut bedroom suite, two weathered oak bedroom suites, chesterfields in silk cover, as well as drawing and dining rooms in lacquer or walnut.
A. Marsh & Co seems to have disappeared during the economic crisis of the 1930s.

Thank you for your research and the information. I have just bought an ornate sideboard (second/third/fourth hand) and it has the name "A. Marsh & Co, 114 - 118 Kentish Town Rd. House Furnishers" on a small plaque inside a drawer. You have just answered some of my questions about the makers / dealers. I am delighted - with my sideboard and with what you have dug up. Thank you again.
