Hi folks, Can anyone tell me a good reference book for Canadian Silver? I thought the Book of Silver would be the obvious place to start, but apparently Birks, Roden, and the like are not listed. I have a bunch of Birks pieces in particular, and I have no idea as to what pattern they might be, and I could really use a good reference. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated by this Northern Newbie. Thanks, Mark Darrah IP: Logged |

Have you tried contacting Birks directly? Doris and Peter Unitt's book Canadian silver, silverplate and related glass is more about company histories, than it is about patterns. IP: Logged |

Hi Callie, Thanks for the suggestion. I will ask around at the Birks store the next time I'm in Ottawa. I might pick up Unitt's book as well. It sounds like info I don't have. Thanks again, Mark IP: Logged |

Are you interested in/collecting pre-1900 Canadian silver? If so, there are a couple of books by John Langdon that you might want. IP: Logged |
