If my memory does not fail me, Hugh Moss is seen on a photograph in the Bonham's catalogue of the Paul Braga collection of Nov 24 2012. The Picture was taken in Hong Kong and Hugh must have been quite young, perhaps in his late twenties or so, together with P.Braga, John Ault and others. This would make ca 1970. But he is right. I might add: Exercise in the form of inspecting (or handling) as many bottles, in catalogue or in real (expositions etc) is of the essential. Like a piano player has to train at least once a day one shold read or watch snuff bottles daily in one form or other. But a photographic memory would not be of harm.
