Emboldened by Klaus's introduction of the theme of public toilets in Hong Kong, may I take the liberty of uploading this advertisement for a hundred year old design of British lavatory (unnamed here) on sale from the company of my grandfather, C.E. Warren & Co. Ltd? It is a part of Hong Kong's history. The ad was published in the SCMP of 20 March 1920 and is the only one that I have found that features the item in question by itself. It seems to me that the design of flushing toilets has not progressed much in a hundred years.
