I recently found some floats which I think are harcork floats but I am not 100% sure what makes a float, a harcork float.
Is it a brand or a style?
Anyone throw some light on this please?

Re: Harcork floats
They normally have Harcork printed on the stem in white letters Snape but that will obviously disappear if they have been repainted.

Re: Harcork floats
Harcork floats are quite distinctive and are usually quite recognisable from the colour scheme. Could you post some pictures Snape?
