C. Bard & Son Philadelphia Goblet.

[Baltimorebottles]

I'm not a collector of early silver but picked up this wonderful goblet at an estate sale recently. It was badly tarnished and mixed in with a bunch of silver plate. The mark is up inside of the stem so I believe the people running the sale missed it. I followed the advise on this site about polishing and it really came up beautifully. I thought I would post a couple pictures for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks for such an informative site.
