I get to hand engrave the names of this years winners on these sailing trophies. Both are solid sterling silver. The bowl was donated by the Pillsbury family in 1885 and the larger trophy was donated in 1907. The hand engraving for the first 100 years is exquisite! I'm sorry I can't get better photos but I thought you all would enjoy seeing them anyway.
If anybody has any advise or encouragement I'd appreciate it. The largest trophy has a solid oak base and weighs about 40 pounds. In 2006 somebody used a vibrating engraver to scrawl the winner's name so I figure I can't do any worse than that.
Thanks, Kelly
