From the June Good Housekeeping magazine in 1929. Interesting tie-in with Emily Post.

What I love about American silver is that we were the only nation to market silver as a way to express yourself. We are a cult-of-personality nation, where we conform by being individualists. The hundreds of patterns of flatware we produced give eloquent, but mute, testimony to that. I'll bet Gorham produced more flatware patterns alone than all European silver companies combined. (That's a wild presumption, but I'll bet I'm right.)
