This cup is by Huntington and Laboyteaux, a partnership in Cincinnati, Ohio in the 1850s. It is a nice example of cup often used for mint juleps, but this post is more to highlight a book on Cincinnati silver by Amy Miller Dehan.
This book came out some years ago and if you have any interest in silver, it would be of interest. Interesting essays concerning pre-civil war silver and post-civil war silver provide an interesting history of Cincinnati industry and their designers.

A very good book, indeed and a handsome cup.
Here is my page on William Coit Huntington.

WEV, the collector of American silver has been very fortunate in recent years to have your research together with authors like Catherine Holland and Amy Dehan to make their collecting in simple terms more rewarding.
