Maker: Robert Albin Cox

Robert Albin Cox, apprenticed to Humphrey Payne 1745, turned over to John Payne 1750, free 1752. First mark, as largeworker, 1752. Second mark 1758. Third mark 1759. Elected to the livery 1791, prime warden 1880. Died 1826. Robin was a specialist tankard maker, as was his master Humphrey Payne. Arthur Grimwade notes that due to Cox’s apparent longevity it's likely he had a son with the same name.
