This is a Tankard of some sort with beautiful etchings of flowers. It’s made of pewter with a removable lid. On the bottom it has the numbers 2224 and then a symbol with what looks like an earth and an eagle on top. It reads Reed & Barton Patented Aug. 4, 1868, May 18, 1878. My mom got it in the late 1950’s. I tried to clean this with silver cleaner and probably shouldn't have.
This panoramic painting on cardboard is signed "W. Howard - Toledo" - maybe Toledo, Spain? It looks like 1960's or 70's, but I am not sure. The frame is 39" x 31." There is a chip on right bottom corner of frame. The picture itself is 30 ½" by 22."
