Subject: Re: Scarce beaver gobelet from the St-Jean-Baptiste society june 24th 1880 by Deichmann on 2010/11/12 15:57:09 Hi there Great question. I have seen 25-30 of them over the years here and there at antique shows. As a collector I look for them. As to how many were produced - excellent question - anyone have any idea? They were made for 24th of June 1880 - so it could not have been that many. I have heard 4000 at some point but - I have never seen this documented anywhere. Whatever the number over the last 130 years quite a few must have been broken etc........it is amazing that most that you see are in pristine condition so most who had them must have put them on a shelf and not used them. Does anyone have any idea how many were produced? Deichmann |
