<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marote, post: 10023643, member: 84568&quot;]Indeed a lot of time. It must have taken me at least 5&nbsp; .... minutes <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I also read it as BP and wasn&#039;t convinced it was a misstruck BB. Simply looking for BP marks gave too many results, with all forms of BP, but I didn&#039;t know how to narrow down the results, as I didn&#039;t know if there was a specific name for such a reversed/mirrored letter. So I searched for the Baskin Bros mark to see if a site would have the name of such letters in the description of the mark. The first hit that showed up, was langantiques.com. The type of letter wasn&#039;t described, but it was even better: they have this useful page: angantiques.com/university/makers-marks-2/ <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> Searched for BP and there it was <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie79" alt=":shame:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>(It took me longer to write this , than to find the mark <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" />)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
