This pewter charger is 16 1/4 inches across and, the depth is about 1 3/4 inches. Pewter is not my area of collecting and there are few collectors in my area. The only possible maker mark is on the back and I have included a rubbing. It’s very faint but it looks like the top of an animal head with pointed ears inside a ring. The animal looks almost dog-like. Curious to whether this is 1920's type item or older and any other information.
Book-Germany in War Time Description:
Description:
I have the book "Germany in War Time" which outlines the personal experiences of an American woman in Germany: Mary Ethel McAuley (1917)
Chicago, The Open Court Publishing Company (What an American Girl Saw and Heard). The book is in fair condition. There is some wear to the corners, however, the front page is what makes this interesting. Written is: "To Captain Hart, whom I hope does not dislike my book too much. From Mary Ethel McAuely."
