Hello everyone! I'm an avid collector of ephemera and the arts and have been collecting silver pieces since inheriting my grandmother's spoon collection as a child.

I would love this community's help in ID'ing some sterling pieces.

I've surmised from the markings they're likely George Blanchard but any info you could provide would be much appreciated! I haven't seen any info about the 'PB' markings in my research so far.

Good job on the photos. Thanks for the intro as well. Not sure if you saw the previous post (Porter Blanchard) on the makers mark your piece has but you appear to be right on the George Blanchard id. There are also other Blanchard related posts you might find of interest. Just use the Silver Salons Google Search at the top of the forum page.
And welcome to the forums!
