SILEX ELECTRIC AUTOMATIC STEAM IRON, 1940's

Silex Electric steam Iron. Made by Silex Household Products Ltd, or H.Bagott & Company Ltd. On the back is a label with the company name, but the 'G' in Bagott is not clear and looks like the figure '8' so the name is not certain. No record can be found of this Company. Judging by the materials used and the method of manufacture it seems to have been made before World War 2. There are two controls, one on the rear for controlling the temperature and one on the handle for Ironing with steam or dry.
