  2. saw that episode of Oak Island and they stated their tool to be dated between 1400-1800. They explained this it was hardened steel and used with a wooden mallet for making fine chisel marks such as in...
  3. looks like maybe the H and W text is to be read with INDPLS; thus turned over as H (possibly R) and M INDPLS. The raised dot between the P and H is the point where text direction changes. Did see seve...

  26. check Anchor Hocking 'Royal Ruby' c1930s+
  27. numbers on stoppers are typically to match to the decanter and there would be a matching number somewhere on the decanter. The ACGA site has this similar shape noted as a pedestal coffee pot in their ...
  28. Leviton was the maker of the electrical light socket and is still in business today producing electrical fixtures. These were assembled by jobbers who acquired the glass from various wholesales. These...
