It was purchased from Chadwick & son orchids and I have quite a few older hybrids.It's good to see these old hybrids still in collections. Where did you get this from?
Where do you look up the contents or parentege of a hybrid?With purpurata (< 2 % of this hybrid) now Cattleya I think you need to change the label to Cattleya Nelly Corradi! With purpurata used so frequently in Cattleya hybridizing there are many older hybrids with a name change.
The RHS maintains the official registry of all orchid hybrids:

Orchidroots is another excellent resource that presents the RHS data in a more user friendly way with lots of crowdsourced photos:

C.Nelly Corradi (1958) it is.With purpurata (< 2 % of this hybrid) now Cattleya I think you need to change the label to Cattleya Nelly Corradi! With purpurata used so frequently in Cattleya hybridizing there are many older hybrids with a name change.
