thought I had seen it all till I found these super ugly buggers today. they are marked Beachcomber- Mayfair. Could they be from the london bar?? I did all the searches but there were no images of any of the memoribilia.

S&P shakers + vintage postcard = urban archeology at its very best.

I agree, never thought I'd have an actual picture of them in action in just a few minutes!

Congrats on finding those, I have done a lot of research into the Beachcomber and always come to dead ends on finding items.

My flatmate just came in as i was shrieking like a girl over that salt and pepper set, an actual positive, identifiable piece of the "Mayfair Beachcomber".
