<p>[QUOTE=&quot;smallaxe, post: 9783445, member: 13430&quot;]Is it possible to determine a date range for a 5 piece sterling tea set by F.B.Rogers based on the style and mark? There is also a 6th piece (not sure what it&#039;s for) with the set that&#039;s by a different maker. All the pieces are in anti-tarnish bags by B. Altman, Fifth Ave (NY), which was a luxury department store where I suspect these were purchased. Their Fifth Ave store operated from 1906 to 1989.These are all family pieces that have been handed down. I&#039;m hoping to determine which of two families it came from, and the date could help with that. Just after I posted this, I discovered from a fashion site that by the 1950&#039;s and later, B. Altman was using a script font for their label. The block font was earlier. That may narrow the date range a bit.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]484004[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]484005[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]484006[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]484007[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]484008[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
