[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 243084, member: 44"]Wright's [I]Hallmarks of the Southwest[/I], p. 157, has Grace Slim saying: "SLIM, GRACE Navajo SILVERSMITH: Smith for the Canyon Silver Company. HALLMARK: Stamped surname in 1/16 Gothic print, first used in 1975. From Sanders, Arizona region. G.SLIM" [Given as an example of her mark] Several other Slims are listed also. None of the examples of their marks are just SLIM. Billy Slim: B. or B.SLIM Helen Slim: H.S. or H.SLIM Luanne Slim & husband Marvin: [I]M.Slim[/I] Michael L. Slim: MICHAEL L. SLIM Nowwww on Grace the author says only surname but example given is surname with initial. On the others the author says initials or surname with initial. Certainly looks like an error on Grace. Saying only surname, the example should have been only SLIM. With an example of G.SLIM, the description should have read, surname with initial. --- Susan[/QUOTE]
