Default Paph white hybrid?

I purchased this plant last year. It was labelled Paph albion var Chilton. I haven't been able to find such a name online. Can someone correctly identify this plant for me? It's just come into bloom.

Paph white hybrid? Male
Default

Paphiopedilum Albion is a good name. It is an old hybrid registered in 1922 by S.Low; parents are Astarte & niveum. When googling the name, I found two clones mentioned:
Variety 'Wyld Court' with an FCC from the RHS.
Variety 'Bodnant', with an FCC from the RHS.

'Chilton' is a varietal name used primary by Ratcliffe. I found a single reference to Albion 'Chilton' in a twitter entry, but as I do not subscribe I can't open it.

I found one chat line thread, which mentions that someone named Nicky apparently was able to clone Paphiopedilum Albion, and that those plants have been offered for sale in Australia.

Wow thanks that's incredible detective work. I did purchase the plant from a Nick Zurcher who specialises in Paphs.
