Re: what is the history of King, Moss & co.?

Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

King, Moss & Co. were Jewellers, Gold & Silversmiths that were located at 639, Market Street, San Francisco in the late 19th century.

Mr. King managed the exhibit of the Goldsmiths' & Silversmiths' Co., of London, at the World's Fair at Chicago in 1897.
