Hi,
I've straightened out your coding as best I can, however the url of the second image was too adulterated to trace the original address. Please post the image of the item again.

Thanks, Tom

Hi, I believe your box was made by Erhard & Söhne of Schwabische Gmund, Germany, and that it likely dates to the first third of the 20th century. Here is a link to the google translation of Erhard's German Wikipedia entry: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=https://de.w...

Dear Members, Happy Birthday to the forum, we are 12 years old today.

Hi, There existed Mano and Laszlo Latzkó, apparently court jewelers in late 19th century Budapest.

I think this may be John Vernon of New York, moving to the American section.

Hi Ag2012, Regarding this problem, I posted the following in the "website updates" forum back in May of 2015. Foreign alphabetic characters and punctuation: The new version of the forum supports Asian and Cyrillic fonts and they should render correctly in any current/future posts. The char...

Hi, Welcome to the forum. You have a very nice American spoon with an interesting decorated drop. I believe it is by Rowland Parry and James Musgrave. The following excerpt is from Ensko's "American silversmiths and Their Marks" PARRY & MUSGRAVE 1793, Philadelphia, Pa., at 42 South Sec...

Hi, I agree with Cheryl, the marks seem more consistent with Japanese manufacture than any other location. On the other hand, I'm fairly sure that the design is by Alphonse LaPaglia, dating from his days at International silver. Believe I had a couple of these goblets with Lapaglia/International mar...

Hi Peter, I've checked and re-checked, all instances of the string of code that was causing the 1/2 page issue have been edited out. As my phone no longer has the issue, I suspect that your device may just be stubborn about refreshing its cache. If the problem still persists, you should be able to h...

Hi Jag, I've never before seen this mark, but I strongly suspect it is an earlier mark of the same William DeHart listed here at: http://www.925-1000.com/americanMod_1.html The Albuquerque, New Mexico directory for 1953 lists - "Silversmith Studio" of Wm. R DeHart jr.. William Dehart also ...

Hi, I've seen this mark a handful of times on Arts & Crafts handwrought silver jewelry. The usual attribution is to the 'Odd Krafters Shop', with location listed as either Boston or Chicago, first quarter 20th century. Does anyone know if they received mention in Darling's "Chicago Silversm...

Hi,

McGrew "tentatively" attributes the mark to Montgomery & Co. and/or Morgan Morgans, successors to Albert Coles. However, I believe it is more likely a "W", as does Cheryl in http://925-1000.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=35384

Hi,
Looks like a Hanau piece, suspect the marks are pseudos we've not seen before, Simon Rosenau of Bad Kissingen seems a good possibility for the maker.
