Page: 305 - Marine Store Dealer was a licensed broker who bought and sold used cordage, bunting, rags, timber, metal and other general waste materials.
He usually sorted the purchased waste by kind, grade etc.
He also repaired and mended sacks etc.
Marine Store Dealers were governed by an Act of Parliament 1st. Geo. IV. sec.16 cap.75. Which enacted that every marine-store-dealer shall have his name inserted in legible characters over his shop-door and shall also keep a book in which he shall insert the name and address of any person from whom he shall buy any article.
Apparently Marine Store Dealers were also not allowed to buy full lengths of rope.
A search of the "Times" archive brings up many references to them and nearly all were in relation to police courts.
In Dicken's "A Christmas Carol" is Joe, a marine store dealer and receiver of stolen goods.
Cotton rags were used to make paper.
