An Antique American Pewter Baluster Measure by Boardman & Hart Pint

Thomas D. Boardman's firm of Hartford, Connecticut had many partnerships including Boardman & Hart the makers of this pint baluster pewter measure.

Thomas D. Boardman was in partnership with Lucius Hart from 1828-1853. It is believed that although this is marked with a "New York" mark it and all Boardman pewter was produced in Hartford and marked with the marks of various partnerships.

It is felt that the New York operation was merely a sales outlet.
