ROSLYN (1946-1963):
Thomas C Wild (who already operated a number of pottery works and would later own the brand Royal Albert) purchased the Park Place Works in Longton around 1910. Harry Reid, who was a traveller for Thomas C Wild was installed as the manager.
In 1913 he sold a half share to Harry Reid and from then on the business traded as Reid & Co. with Reid as Managing Director.
Around 1917 the partners were Thomas Clarke Wild, Harry Reid and T.C. Wild's sons - Thomas Edmund Wild and Frederick James Wild.
Harry Reid died around August 1933, Thomas E. Wild and Frederick J. Wild continued the business retaining the name Reid & Co.
In 1946 Reid & Co was incorporated as a limited company and the business name was changed to Roslyn China.
By 1960 the Chairman was Thomas E. Wild and the General Manager was A.W. Washington. The company had overseas agents in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
As part of rationalisation the Roslyn China business was closed in July 1963.
