Can anyone tell me who this maker is? I've never seen a stamp on silver like this before.

    I picked up this sterling silver tray with either flower or drink vials. It's the silver mark that's on the bottom that has me totally confused. I'm not sure if the letters in the hatch lines are supposed to represent at date and then there's a sort of anchor as part of the stamp as well.

    If anyone has any ideas about this mark, I'd really appreciate it.

    Thanks

    Eileen

      Look at that. I have been hunting for a while and then 10 minutes after I posted this I found the company. Its William B. Kerr & Co of Newark NJ.

      Should have waited.

      Thank you all just the same.
