This spoon is 9" long.
I have seen other similar pieces of silver from the same period with Gordon Co. Baltimore on them.
Wondering if that was the retailer? Could not find a Gordon Silversmith that sounded correct.

Another Mystery I.D.
Can any sharp eyed reader identify this company?
I have gone through several reference books AND websites to no avail.
It is an 8 1/2 to 9 inch table serving spoon.
Says M.B.CO. STERLING
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Help with Silver I.D.?
I just acquired this gorgeous Fish(?) Server. It is marked STERLING but no Hallmark.
I wondered if any sharp eyed Silver Expert might be willing to hazard a guess as to its origin?
I ran it though Replacements I.D. app and the closest they came was Gorham Cottage, but that is not it.

Help with Hallmark?
This pastry fork identifies as Mt. Vernon - George Washington but the hallmark does not match.
I know Mt. Vernon absorbed Mauser and I thought that might be it but does not match the ones on this site.
I have seen it before but can't remember. Anyone able to help? Thank you.

Is this Sheffield?
Can someone tell me whether or not this is Sheffield.
It has a crown and a lion but there is a letter in the middle instead of the end?

Spoon Usage?
I have a recently acquired spoon. It is Blackinton Sterling. Replacements calls the pattern BLS7.
It is 5 3/8" long. It has some brite-cut at the edge of the bowl. The bowl looks as if it may have had gold gilt at one time.
I was thinking of infant feeding spoon or parfait spoon. But if it had the ...

Schulz & Fisher "FARALONE" Soup Ladle
I just acquired a magnificent soup ladle by Schulz & Fisher in their "FARALONE" pattern. It is 13 1/4" in length.
Obviously I am not asking for identification but do have a question.

Mystery Hallmark
I am hoping some sharp eyed reader can identify this hallmark for me.
It is on a piece of hollowware. It says STERLING so I assume it is American.

WOW! You are a fountain of information. Thank you so much.
I woke up in the middle of the night after posting and it hit me
that Black Starr & Frost were likely the vendors and some other

Black Starr & Frost Strange Hallmark
I have a gravy boat marked Black Starr & Frost. It says nothing about Gorham.
It has a hallmark that is different from any BS & T hallmarks that I have found in reference books.
Can anyone tell me more about the hallmark? Thank you!

Re: Another Hallmark Mystery to me
Hi Peter:
That sounds like a very good suggestion.
It is a very old spoon and I see absolutely no wear through of plate in the typical areas.
Thank you!
