I recently purchase a sterling baby cup at a yard sale and am attempting to determine the date of manufacture.

The mark is Towle Sterling 777. The cup is plain and 2" tall. I have seen other Towle marks while researching this however they are all longer numbers.

Does anyone possibly have information as to when this was manufactured?

I have found contact information for Towle Corporation, hopefully they can provide some answers. (www.towlesilver.com)

I am back where I started, Towle replied and stated that they do not have an archivist.
I have contacted a couple of private dealers that are selling baby cups. If anyone has any information it would be appreciated.
