J. B. Spray & Co.
I know nothing about this company, but it occupied a fine building on Russell Street. The mill opposite is being demolished Image There were interesting goings-on here two years ago: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/nottinghamshire/2006/07/344121.html.
Built in 1870 as the Nottingham lace and general textile industry spread out from the Lace Market area of the city into larger buildings.
