Default engraved trophies circa 1930

Here are some photos of trophy awards that date back to circa 1930's - 40's.
The photos don't really do the engraving justice(sorry). They are brilliantly engraved and the years have treated them well. Enjoy.

John,

Thanks for posting those pictures. I love to see work from the pre-WWII period. It has a look that is rarely achieved today. On the pieces you pictured, I think much of it was chasing though the inscription is engraving.

Cheers,

Roger
