Silver Maker's Mark
« on: October 21, 2011, 06:20:56 pm »
I doubt anyone can help me as the picture is so hard to see. This is a maker's mark from a silver box for playing cards. The original is tiny. I actually had to use 2 magnifying glasses, a camera on full zoom, and then photoshop just to get to this point! Does anyone recongize this one:

Can you show the item. Maybe searching for that can lead us to who made it. I tried using a magnifier for some photos and it didn't work at all! Sorry you had to go through all that! How frustrating!

In this silver marks encyclopedia...this was the closest I could find.  Scroll down til you see the Tuttle mark.

But...all of theirs seem to be with the design directly above the arc...I'll keep looking
I can fully appreciate the meaning behind the phrase "They just don't make 'em like they used to".
