String of Pearls by Glenn Miller

[Seabee]

Found a string of pearls today and thought of Glenn Miller. How is that for telling my age? In the Tot Lot, right front of the slide. Thinking maybe a mom lost them. They are individualy tied an the clip has "G.Silver" on the back. Clip seems to be broken. Anyone know what "G.SILVER" means?? Also found 6 Zipper parts, lot of Jackets areout of use now. Some clad and a few buttons rounded out the day. Now I am ready for the Super Bowl.

German and Nickel Silver
Neither is silver, but rather they are a mix of nickel, copper and zinc. The terms nickel and German silver are used interchangeably and will be marked G. Silver or German Silver.

I REMEMBER GLEN BUT NOT THE PEARLS.

It doesn't say anything about age, but it does say a lot about good taste. I'm 29 and have loved big band music since I was a kid. That was real music! Not this b.s. they have today.

My thoughts also Pimp! I collect Miller, Dorsey, James, Duke, Roosevelt Sykes, etc, etc. original labels. Best dang music ever, only 59 here........NGE
