Gary Young Reports:
"Yes originally the Astor was made by Coate's (before Simpsons moved to Somerset and shared the mill where Coate's brushes were made). After the joining of the 2 companies we solely traded Coate's as the hairbrush side to the business and Simpsons took over all the 'branding' of the shaving brushes. The Astor originally had links with the London Astoria. The Astoria was a music venue in London but was originally (up to the 1920s) used for warehousing. This is the link that Great Uncle Alex had with the name. It was an adaption on 'Astoria'."
