Author	Topic: Maker's Mark Help "BSC"
Chris Kirkman Posts: 17 Registered: May 2003	posted 05-06-2005 03:21 PM Does anyone have any knowledge of a sterling maker's mark that looks like this: A square box that inside has a large B on the left, and an smaller S directly over a C on the left? I know a few companies used B.S.C. initials, like Barbour, but wasn't sure when the initials were in a square. Thanks for any suggestions you may have. Chris IP: Logged

I suppose you looked in Rainwater under "B"... I would have done the same. Unfortunately, you don't find it there. But it never hurts to look at the marks shown in Rainwater for International Silver Co. You'll find the "BSC" in a square there. International arose from Meriden Britannia, and acquired all of the associated marks. The Rainwater entry on International is worth a look. IP: Logged
