Hello everyone and Happy Christmas!

Any info on the relative date when Gorham used this silverplate mark:

The mark is on a large ice bucket.

My guess is after WWII.

Thanks,
Kelly

Kelly,

I found the same font/script Gorham for sterling and dated to 1960:

So, my best guess would be the silverplate mark would be from the same period.
