    So this same pattern, with a fancy bowl, showed up on 925-1000 about three months ago, and had a new post today, so I came back to revisit this post - interestingly, the day of the month is on that thread is '31' rather than
    '13' (perhaps a die-cutter's error?', and the month letter both here and there looks to be the 'E' for May rather than the August 'R'.

    Looking more closely at the registry for the 'drawing', despite the similarities described, believe it is for an actual picture and is not connected to the spoon - since there appears to be a misplaced comma, the name of the owner should be 'John James Horrocks', who was involved in printing in the 1880s (and the date shown is August 16th rather than the 13th).

    I'd like to add a couple of your images to the 925-1000 thread, if that's alright...

    Good point about the E, Cheryl. I can not say now what it was that I saw about the pictures that made me think R instead of E. Obviously cannot be F, since there is no F on the code tables.

  6. I've taken another photo to make it a little clearer (within some editing), that may be an E at the bottom, it's fairly rubbed so I am not certain. Definitely a J on the right there...Hope this helps.

    Feel free to reuse any photos :)
