I have recently acquired a presentation cup made by Elkingtons of B'ham.Typical early Victorian baluster shape with embossed pattern.I think it might be of intereset to someone in your arena. the engraving is " Talkin Tarn Reggatta 1854 Corby castle Prize won by Fred Myers" The Elkuington date mark to the base is 1853,12 odd years after electroplating was invented.it is typical Elkington,top quality plate tho the inside,base is worn due to I guess a sppoon stirring,or maybe use as vase. The outside is as new. If there are any interested parties,please feel free to contact me .tony Steven Melbourne Australia.
