Author	Topic: Need Assistance Identifying a Silver Mark
ChicagoMike unregistered	posted 06-04-2003 11:50 PM Can you help me identify this silver mark. I have a silver cream and sugar platter with a mark that seems like it might be LeBolt & Co. but it's not dead on. Any help identifying the maker would be appreciated! Thanks. IP: Logged

Stephen Posts: 625 Registered: Jan 2003	posted 06-05-2003 02:06 AM No it isn't, but you can find a drawing of an Ellmore mark with the lion, shield and E in Rainwater's Encyclopedia of American Silver Manufacturers. It is similar to the one in your photo. IP: Logged
