I'm glad that you found the story behind the Lincoln Cathedral Imp as intriguing as I did! Please explain to me this "evil eye" that you speak of. Sounds interesting!

I still have not found any additional information regarding the door knocker but I have emailed the Lincoln Cathedral online shop with my question and photo but still have not received a reply. Looking forward to hearing from them!

Antique Questions Forum / Antique Lincoln Cathedral Imp Door Knocker

« on: February 18, 2012, 07:38:36 am »

Hi folks! I'm not very skilled in the subject of antiques and I'm wondering if you can help me out....I live in Ontario, Canada and just purchased my first house six months ago. It was built in 1926 and has had at least 4 previous owners. Anyways, on my door is a small door knocker with Lincoln Cathedral and it's signature imp. A quick searchhas turned up door knockers of just the imp or just the cathedral....not both. Having british roots I would really like to know more about this item. I'm sure its not worth much but I love it and would love to k ow more about it! I tookit off the door and can't find any markings or signatures. Any help would be appreciated immensely, thanks!
