If it is sterling it will be imprinted on the piece. Otherwise it is silver plate. Most Rogers Brothers is silver plate.
The value of a set of 1947. Rogers Brothers flatware is dependent upon the condition of the flatware. The flatware can be worth as much as $1000 for a full set
Sir, Ma'am, I was given the original box the silverplate 50 piece silverware that came in with the original certificate of guarantee as a gift from my mother-in-law. I am just wondering how much it would be worth to sell. I also have my great-grandmother's silverware setting in the original case that is over 70 years old. I don't know the manufacturer on that one. I am just curious regarding the WM. ROGERS MFG. CO EXTRA PLATE setting. Thank you for your assistance Mrs. Lori McKnight
yes
"W.R." on the back of silverware likely stands for "Warranted Silver-Plate," indicating that the item is not solid silver but a silver-plated piece. The two symbols could be a logo or manufacturer's mark, which may help identify the origin of the silverware.
IS stands for Inlaid silver. ie Holmes and Edwards have a full line of Inlaid silver, which is major improvement over silver palte and the IS is stamped on each piece, usualy in a square box stamp
Why not? A volunteer fire fighter is the lifeline for more people in rural areas than we like to think about. And that sets aside the volunteer with a city department (where fire fighters unions still permit them) who provides that extra manpower when the sky is red and the chips are down. The selfless service these empowered individuals provide saves lives and reduces property damage and loss. The volunteer will be trained, and training is a good thing. Departments train volunteers to do all the things that paid fire fighters do, and maybe some more. (Who ever heard of a big urban fire department training one man live line and ladder, hmm?) So you'll get training, and a lot of it. Very useful stuff, too, particularly the first aid and emergency medical course work you'll have to go through. You may be at, say, a fast food restaurant and use it to good effect before any firefighter or EMT can appear. You will have been a "first responder" in the finest traditions of public service. There is the "awareness factor" associated with this line of service that will make you a safer citizen, too. Your home and business will be less of a fire (or other) hazard, and your will help family, friends and neighbors make changes to improve the chances that something untoward will jump off there. We could go on, but you get the picture. Becoming a volunteer fire fighter is not for everyone, and not everyone can do it. But, if you have the will and the skill, you may be able to take up some of the slack in your community. And there is usually a bit more slack than anyone is willing to admit, particularly when something big and "unpredictable" transpires. Make an inquiry with any fire fighter you see, go to any (manned) fire station, or get on the phone and make some calls. If you're interested, that is. Good luck making the grade.
The Inter-Cities Fairs Cup was the last major trophy. Newcastle won in 1969. However, if Newcastle win the Football League division 1 for 2009 - 2010 season that will be the latest piece of silverware. Newcastle did win the Intertoto Cup in 2006.
