information on maker - wm rogers

Postby tbar68 » Sun Feb 18, 2007 10:43 pm

Looking for info. Have a meat tray, probably plated, marked WM ROGERS. With a eagle/bird to the left of the name and a star to the right. Has number 4110 marked beneath.

Thanks,
TB

Please clarify the marking on your tray.
1. Is the "m" in the abbreviated William underlined, or
2. is the "m" in the abbreviated William written as superscript?
Thanks, Kit

Please disregard my previous post: I've just checked another source and even its rendition of the trademarks doesn't match.
Rainwater's Encyclopedia, revised 5th, p. 209, states the (eagle Wm Rogers star) trademark was first used on silverplated holloware in 1938 and discontinued in 1976. Kit
