Where the Drury reference is shown in italics, then a specimen of that piece was in the Pardoe (some ex Went) sale. Where the Drury reference is shown underlined, then a specimen of that piece was in the Bradey (many ex Drury) sale (Whytes Feb'97). If in italics and underlined, then it was in both. In a few instances, it is unclear which variety was sold and I have "guessed," or assumed it was the same type as I have.
I am uncertain of the following UFS refs.
Bell, Whitmore, Sweeney is the new ref. for ¼ds
