Got back from a trip to PA with a very nice SxS that I can't seem to identify. The maker name is William Atkinson, marked as "Wm Atkinson" on the side plate. The rib states "Remodeled by William Ford" and gives a Birmingham address. It has some beautiful engraving and - barring some dings and dents from the years it has been on this earth - was at one time a very nice looking piece with good checkering and classic lines.
If anyone can shed some light, I would be much obliged. It has a serious flaw that needs attention and I really need to figure out where it should go and how much I would be prepared to spend on it setting it to rights. Thanks in advance for any help.
