<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 241951, member: 36"]This is going to be FUN! I'd check carefully for hallmarks on some of those, just in case. Worse, they didn't always mark the sterling...or the gold. The round one with the red looks like it might have a good maker on it; I can't read it from here. The bigger fur clip looks like it's marked too. If it's just a patent mark, it's probably on the mechanism. Even that can be useful. <a href="http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/srchnum.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/srchnum.htm" rel="nofollow">http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/srchnum.htm</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
