There have been some posts requesting more information on the silversmith Franklin Porter.

As I am a new member, I cannot respond to those threads directly.

I recently published an article in the Yale University Art Gallery Bulletin on Porter and his daughter/apprentice Helen Porter Philbrick. For a pdf of the entire article, go to the following link:
