Carl M Cohr - just for fun and knowledge.

As you know I am danish I do not think that I have shown this before. The text goes. Start picture 2 right side go to 3 and 4 and then end with picture 2 left side.
"Carl M. Cohrs sølvvarefabriker korpus og bestikvarer ægte sølv prima sølvplet mærket ATLA"
and in my translation:

"Carl M. Cohrs silver ware factories corpus and bestikvarer(1 word for knives forks spoons) pure silver prima silverplated marked ATLA"

Interesting ash-tray. This is one of the first advertising items form Cohr I have seen. Is there any marks?

'bestikvarer' can be tranlated to 'flatware'

No halmarks - I bought it bacause it was this promotional item - and marks would have been nice but I soppose that ATLA in the text was enough.
Do you have any idea of when this can be manufactured?

Late 1920's or early 1930's, I think. ATLA was used from 1926, and the registration as a trademark was published in 1928.
