Author	Topic: W&H in rectangle - J. Hall spoon
cbc58 Posts: 333 Registered: Aug 2008	posted 08-01-2018 10:49 AM Spoon marked J. Hall (who I think is the retailer) has a W&H in a rectangle with what looks like a colon after it. I have seen various makers listed as using W&H, but no example with the W&H in a rectangle. Anyone know who this could be? Tks IP: Logged

cbc58 Posts: 333 Registered: Aug 2008	posted 08-01-2018 11:41 AM Wood & Hughes is the leading contender - but I haven't found a similar example listed by a reference site or in my limited book resource. Best pic I could get with my old iphone at this point. IP: Logged
Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 08-01-2018 11:46 AM I suspect the item might be coin silver. Also see: Is this cup by Wood & Hughes? Is it coin? IP: Logged
Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 08-01-2018 11:48 AM I still would like a better closeup so I can rule out a thought. IP: Logged
Polly Posts: 1970 Registered: Nov 2004	posted 08-01-2018 06:41 PM I think that's an early Wood & Hughes mark. What does the rest of the spoon look like? IP: Logged
