Antique Questions Forum / Re: Marked Anchorware Chromium Plated-What is this????

« on: June 12, 2008, 09:23:17 pm »

What size is it and was that a typo and you meant "beer" and not "bear"?  I was thinking maybe a syrup or honey dispenser.

Dont know if this will help, but if you go to google and hit the images button then type in Windsor Ware Platter "Wild Turkey" there are several different places that come up that have them for auction.  You  might find one like yours with a description that will help or email one of the auction places and ask them.  Hope this helps.

Hey Pamela,

I googled images and came up with this website:  http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://cemeteries.files.wordpress.com/2006/09/eastern_star_symbols.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.dailypaul.com/node/39887&h=337&w=440&sz=49&hl=en&start=17&tbnid=reyBTWCNtCj5BM:&tbnh=97&tbnw=127&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dinsignia%2Bwith%2B5%2Bpointed%2Bstar%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den

and this website:http://www.saintsalive.com/freemasonry/fatal.htm

It looks like the same symbols painted on the top of your pill box.  You can check it out and see what you think.

I have a Berhardt chest and I wrote the company for any information that they might have about the chest.  They wrote back that they needed the 3 digit number that was handwritten on the back of the piece..maybe several times.  They said with that number they would be able to tell me when it was made, where, what it was made of and how much it sold for way back when.  Sure enough, there are 3 numbers written in crayon or marker.  Those might be something like that.

I googled "travel cups w/leather case" and at Amazon.com there is a 4 pc. stainless steel shot cups with a leather case that looks similiar to the ones you have.  Yours are prettier.  I can't tell if yours would be shot cups or not, but that's a thought.  I copied and pasted the page below.

Antique Questions Forum / Does anyone know what this is???

« on: February 19, 2008, 10:53:33 am »

I bought this plate at a salvage yard for $10.  It was laying out in the rain and I LOVED it.  I'm not sure what its made of, iron maybe, because it's VERY HEAVY...and as you can see, it rusts.  The front has a roman solider holding a lady and some other people and the back has a ring attached like it was hung on something.  I'm wondering if it had something to do with a fireplace...but I don't know.  The word  NADRAC (with an accent over the A) is stamped on the back, but that's the only markings I can find.  If anyone has any information about this or where I might search, I'd appreciate the info.  I would like to know how old it is and the value.  Thank you for your help.

Antique Questions Forum / 1925 Bernhardt Furn. Court Cupboard??

« on: February 19, 2008, 10:43:59 am »

I recently purchased this cabinet which I've been told was a 1925 Bernhardt Furn. Court Cupboard.  I know that is was made by Bernhardt Furn, but I'm not sure about anything else.  It's 61" high, 35" wide, and 17" deep.  If anyone has any information about this kind of cabinet or knows what the value of the cabinet might be, I'd appreciate it.  I'm not reselling it, just curious.  This is my first post, so I hope the pictures come out.
