Pile of Sterling, Need Some Hallmark ID

[bigcaddy64]

I ended up picking up a good sized bag of mixed Sterling pieces yesterday and found a few cool pieces in the bag.

It's mostly all scrap with 1 good necklace, 2 bracelets and a neat charm bracelet

The charms are where I need the hallmark help. There is a roadrunner charm with a small square tag that reads New Mexico on the back and a hallmark on the other. It appears to be a sign post, similar to a real estate sign with the letter A in the middle.

The other charms are of Arkansas and New Jersey along with a bike, shoes and a skull

If you have an idea of the hallmark, please let me know. I'm guessing is a southwest artist but don't know who or how old

Nice little assortment of finds bigcaddy! I believe the hallmark on the roadrunner charm is from Bell Trading Post, a southwest shop. You can see examples of their mark in the top row of this photo:

And here is the webpage I pulled that photo from:

Beat me to it Damn shame you can't put an artist to it. It's kind of plain, but I like it (the roadrunner I mean).

Bell trading company is the one that looks like a for sale sign for a house.

That's the one! Thanks for the input. I'm thinking about breaking up the bracelet for the individual charms...unless they have more value as a whole.

Now if I could just get some info on the tobacco pipes thread!
