‘Signs, signs, everywhere a sign’ | Johnstown upholstery shop owner designs, makes banners for events

The colorful signs and banners seen at PolkaFest, Thunder in the Valley and Johnstown Music Fest are designed and made by one man. Bob Shaw, who owns an upholstery shop along Frankstown Road in Johnstown, studied pageantry – defined as a colorful, showy display – in art school and has been creating signage for the three events since their inceptions.

Opinions on Antique Kilt Pin - X Marks the Scot - A Community of ...

Once I recieved it I was very surprised. It is most certainly silver, and I can see where it was tested by the seller, beyond that, it felt very very old. Sometimes you can just "feel" the age of an item. I studied it quite a bit and now think it is from the middle 1800's and possibly earlier. Was wondering if I could hear some other opinions as to its age and history? Please note: the item is very worn and it is possible it did indeed have hallmarks at one time. Would appreciate any info. Thanks. It's very hard to judge from a photo, you have the upper hand in actually handling it, but from the picture it looks much more like pewter, can I ask why do you think it is silver?And why do you think it is old, there have been many people casting replica objects, which are very hard to date accurately. Also why do you think it is a kilt pin from the mid 1800's, yes of course it is a sword and shield design,but at that date kilt pins might have been an unusual item, so perahps a broach instead?

On Christmas Eve this year, I took Communion at my parish church. The Challis and Paten that were used are of Tudor manufacture. The date year is 1547 (Henry VIII). This year they are 463 years old and are only used on Christmas Eve and Easter Monday. At midnight, in a large church, lit only by candles, I could see the hallmarks on the base of the Challis quite clearly.

I know the photo does for sure look like pewter. Those were my thoughts as well.
