Okay, I collect inexpensive spring tongs - I'm fascinated with the form and prices fit my pocketbook. While perusing Rainwater's Encyclopedia of American marks, I discovered a British mark which, due to a severe lack of resources, I couldn't identify before. It looks as if this piece was made for export to the U.S., but I purchased it recently from a British seller. The mark is listed as that of Barker Bros. Silver Company, Inc. [part of the Ellis-Barker Silver Companies] The 'moral' of this story - information turns up in the most unlikely places. IP: Logged |
