Hi, I have recently found an old pram in my loft, it is a hard bodied silver cross.

I am very keen to find out more about it, could you please offer me some advice as to its approximate age and value?

Regards.

Jax.

IF you contact silver cross you can buy most paint colours direct though a smallish pot costs about £10. Or I use metalic car paint on mine for touch ups at half the price and there is no difference on my navy pram

Hello, I am sure you have had many replies to this question, but i recently had my hood and apron re-done by alison murphett you is top of her field for pram restoration, she does everything, from part restoration to a full restoration, and has a huge collection of prams, so im sure she could give you a little history on the pram, i've pasted a website that has a few examples of her work and also an address and telephone number.

I hope this helps.

I have an older dolls pram which i would like to identify the maker of.There are no makers marks that i can see. Is there a publication which could help ? I`m guessing it could be 1920`s/30`s.

Hello, if you email the people at the jack hampshire museum they are normally pretty good at identifying prams, if you can email them a photo of the pram that would help them a lot! Jo

Hello, i have just brought another pram to add to my collection, however i have decided to re-paint it a different colour and sell it on, the only problem is that im a bit undecided as to what colour, any ideas? I like deep red or a cadbury's purple. Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved. Thankyou. Jo
