Antique Pewter Mark
Can you recommend a great book for researching vintage and antique marks / trademarks?
I've been purchasing several wonderful treasures from antiques shops and would like to be able to easily cross-reference marks or trademarks found on the bottom side of them. Is there a comprehensive book that I can purchase that will let me do this? I was overwhelmed when I tried to look for a book on Amazon -- too many choices!
Some of my purchases are pewter mugs, colored glass candy bowls, and other items with small stamps underneath. I'd love to be able to verify that they are indeed vintage or antique and where they came from. Thank you!
at the library or bookstore, anything by the Kovel's.....
there's several sites online for specific marks, like china makers marks, silver marks, and some glass makers.....
just ask google.com for backstamps or maker's marks for a specific thing....like this...
