<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ascot, post: 334869, member: 96&quot;]The mark is for Frank Smith, a high quality manufacturer in Massachusetts. I believe they were in business from 1886 - 1958. Their molds were later purchased by Towle. Towle made several Frank Smith flatware patterns, marketing them as Frank Smith by Towle. I wouldn&#039;t worry too much about the difference in marks on your sherbets--Smith had more than one mark, probably used at different times. I would date the pieces 1940s-1950s when brides registered for these items at jewelry and china shops.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
