I can't puzzle out the signature on this jigger. Thanks in advance for any info!

Close up of the signature which is on the side near the top.

And I hate to be a bandwidth hog but the coin on the bottom looks so good - here are a couple more pics!

For bonus points, any guesses on what BCC or CBC is? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum. The name is Schroth. They may still be in business in Montville, NJ. If so you could try contacting them for more information about this item. Good luck with your research.

It could be the Cincinnati Ballroom Classic and that competition seems to have a professional category and an amateur category, which would explain the "Pro-Am" inscription?

Was this silver piece found in Ohio, by any chance?

The Bing Crosby Pro-Am was also known as "The Clambake"...might check to see if BCC or CBC was ever used.
