[QUOTE="Mill Cove Treasures, post: 205912, member: 60"]That's interesting MOS. That's a first for me. From researching the baskets, I found out that Fenton applied the handles separately from the molds. They even mark the handles with the person who made and applied them. Here is a link to the "basket handlers marks". [URL]http://fentonfan.com/handler.html[/URL] Here are a few pictures with the marks impressed into the handles.
