    I thought they were whales, but I can go with salmon. Better yet, they're signed. Dealer didn't have a clue I don't think.

    I need one of those! Mine has been known to put $2 on items that still have their $1 price tags from Dollar Tree.(grumble) Went in today on my way home from the spending spree and spent...zero.

    Thanks you.
    It is quiet nice, and old. Sort of barbotine,probably French and maybe a imaginary fish...

    I bought these 2 lots of sterling a couple of weeks ago at the auction, but just got the photos uploaded today. I have most of them ID'd but will need a little assistance on the remaining 8 or 9 pieces. :happy::happy::happy:

    Trash pick on the curb in Cambridge, saw some old boxes in the pile and rummaged, judging by the remains of the forks, I think someone may have crafted with the rest of the set. 17-1/2 oz. plus a bunch of knives and a meat fork.

    I found 16 sterling silver shooting trophy plates in a dumpster in Denver about 20 years ago. Most were Randahl and Wiliam Dodge arts & crafts era.
