Reed

 

 

John Reed operated from 36 Catherine St, Devonport between 1902 and at least 1937. These premises were previously occupied by George Breeze.

 

The company’s only remaining artefacts seem to be these two copper printing plates bearing the Catherine St address, these may indicate that the company relied solely on paper labels rather than embossed bottles.
