Does anyone recognize these hallmarks?
GERITY PRODUCTS INC - Toledo, OH, USA - founded in 1898 as a plating and casting concern, doing custom work in various metals, including for the auto industry, also chrome-plated bathroom and kitchen fittings. A few years after WWII they started producing their line of silverplated Georgian reproductions and other giftware like their shamrock paperweights. In addition to Toledo, OH, they also produced in Adrian, MI, the “4-8” in the marks alludes to the year 1948. The “G-shamrock-4-8” trademark was registered in 1953, noting first use also in 1953.
