Sorry I have no photo. I'm looking for a "HSB Sterling" Mark on 8 cocktail sticks. The 2 words quoted are what appears on the items. Thank you.

I'm not sure about this. One possibilty is Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Company, Chicago, Illinois. Problem is, they usually used the mark HSB & C. Founded in 1883. Sold in 1962 to John Cotter & Company for the "True Value" brand name.

Regards,
Pat.

Here's a link to HBS&C that was just updated this month, April 1. Hopefully, it won't go away soon.
