Re: Dohrmann Companies--Maker or not?

I agree with everything you have stated. There is always a possibility especially when things do not have surviving documentation to know for absolute certainty but theories and assumptions can be made with some educated digging The forks I have depicted here are most likely hotels.

JFT in a crossed Pickaxe and Shovel

When I first glanced at it I thought it was a Joseph Mayer and Bros. souvenir spoon but after further inspection the letters were different. I did find that Joseph Mayer and Bros. were eventually taken over by E.J. Towle Mfg. Co. but the mark for E. J. Towle Mfg. Co has the E to the right T in the m...

Sterling Souvenir Spoon Left Facing Bear Makers Mark Unknown

I have this Yellowstone Park Souvenir Spoon that is marked with an image of a left facing bear and "sterling". At first I thought it was William K. Vanderslice & Co. but this bear mark only has two full legs and a foot and the neck/head shape doesn't match. https://i.postimg.cc/N5RBDGv...

Rare/Unknown Robbins Co. Mark?

I have these two identically designed Yellowstone Park souvenir spoons. What is interesting is the marks do not match. one is the standard Charles Robbins Co marking and the other is a lower case "R". Is it possible they used this markings for their smaller souvenirs? https://i.postimg.cc/...

Re: Identical Spoons two different makers marks: R. Wallace & Sons Mfg & Haynes

Traintime, thank you for the idea to check patents. I have yet to find anything for Haynes but I have noticed most of the ornate souvenir style spoons for R. Wallace & Sons Mfg Co were done around the early 1890's which match the stamps on a few of my other spoons.

Re: Identical Spoons two different makers marks: R. Wallace & Sons Mfg & Haynes

silverly I saw that maker too but all the marks I found did not match as far as I could find. Unfortunately Haynes back in the early 1900's was a very popular last name as far as Yellowstone and silver goes. I have yet to find a Haynes makers mark that matches or is remotely close. I have even looke...
