Moore, the son of a Clerkenwell clockmaker, founded the London company of Gibbs and Moore in 1871 with Mr. S. Gibbs. In subsequent years Moore seems to have worked on his own, operating as A. L. Moore, Glass Painters and Decorators from premises at 89 Southampton Row, London which is the likely period of manufacture of the present lot.
Moore was joined by his son Charles Eustace Moore (1880-1956) in 1896, when the company became known as A. L. Moore and Son. Their premises in Bedford Way, Russell Square, London were bombed in 1940, but under C. E. Moore the business continued until 1952.
