Pair of Tablespoons by Joseph Gibson, Cork

Post by scorpio »

A pair of tablespoons (serving spoons) from my silver collection, really nice examples of silver by Joseph Gibson, Cork, which are in very good condition with excellent hall marks showing "GIBSON" "STERLING".

Hi Scorpio,

Can you embed the image of the Joseph Gibson Spoons, as you did with the Teulon image?

For some reason, for me and many others, Photobucket gallery images only show up the size of a postage stamp.

I didn't know that, it shows normal size to me. The problem is Trev I'm not quite sure how I managed to show the photo in the Teulon post but I'll give it a shot! If it doesn't work, perhaps you could tell me how.

That's great. They look like a fine pair of examples.

Thanks for sharing them with us.
