When the decorator reported that he's finished, the manager went out to have a look at his work. "Oh, no," he said, "you haven't left enough space between 'Crosse' and 'and' and 'and' and 'Blackwell'!"

Surely you have encountered the somewhat contrived extension, regarding the sign of a company called Holland and Anderson Ltd., in which case, the "and" at the end of Holland and the "And" at the beginning of Anderson can be utilised to give a sentence in which the three letters AND are used thirteen times consecutively ?

No, I've never seen that version, Nightmare, and it is, as you say, contrived. The letters a, n and d at the end of Holland and at the start of Anderson are not, in fact 'words', as stipulated by the questioner.
Johnny, a full stop is not essential there...the semi-colon, as provided by Sir.prize, is quite adequate.
