Nice find Bakersgma - yes, it sure looks like that.
I was drawing a blank on this mark, but think it is Whiting. It is on a Sterling Silver handle for a button hook. The mark looks like it was...
Hi Susan - just back from holiday here. I just bookmarked oldcopper.org, fantastic site! I'm sure I'll be looking at it again!
Welcome Bluebird! You'll find lots of nice people here that will help you with questions.
Thanks for checking Bakersgma, I've been too busy to do much more checking here. I've been making more effort to use "Best Answer", especially...
I tried a logout / login, but the link remains missing in this thread.
