<p>[QUOTE="Bakersgma, post: 106545, member: 59"]Back when I was collecting on eBay (8-10 yrs ago), ice cream forks were a good buy at $10 each if in decent shape and from a quality maker. But you had to be careful to avoid the "after market production" where another piece was altered to look like an ice cream fork. I think yours are fine - particularly with the gilding both top and underside which the after market guys never did - but when looking at comparable sales, it's something to be aware of.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
