Here is an early large size wooden Dewhurst’s Sylko cotton reel in D.332 later called Forget-Me-Not. Reels with this label design date to the first half of the 20th century.

This has been lightly used but has plenty of cotton remaining. The labels are both pierced and are a little worn.

Approximate size: Height 4.3cm Diameter 4.3cm
The amount of cotton is given in weight on this earlier label: 1 oz/28.3g but later large size reels give the length of actual cotton as 457m/500 yards.
