Are you sure it wasn't a Shaws one? They always used to be the only peeps taht do the stuff and it's part of a kit - includes "white tack" (cos blue tack could be seen as haveing a party bias...), sting, glue, pencils...... just about everything except voters really! They make very good rulers/straight edges for craft projects though whoever makes them! “At the voting station I was introduced to Grays Vote Compactor.” Are you sure it wasn’t a Shaws one?

The booths had full height walls, but only about a foot wide and around two sides of a triangular desk.
