Can't Identify Maker from Hallmark

Postby jgerling » Mon May 11, 2009 8:42 pm

I have a six piece set of flatware with no makers name, only the name of the retailer. There is clear hallmark which I have never seen before.

Can anyone indentify the maker for me?

Thank you,

John Gerling

Hello.

The maker's mark on the left is sideways.
Check out William B. Durgin here:

The pattern of the pieces is known as Fairfax, and was originally introduced by Durgin in 1910.
