Hi! Thanks for sharing. You have a Lawrence B. Smith Co waiter tray. Not sure the exact vintage--probably 1940s or 1950s. I can't tell if it is footed or not from the photo. It looks to be and some of those still command value.

Replacements.com can tell you exactly which one you have or you can search through their database on your own (put Lawrence B. Smith co waiter tray in your search).

Their asking price will be the retail value (like if you had a store or were a business). If you sell it to them or own your own--either to them or online, you can expect much less than that value.

I think it is hollow-ware silver plated, but I am not positive--There are a number of varieties of these and without knowing the exact measurements and if it is footed or not, I don't want to guess. Usually Sterling is marked, but not always.

Yours looks to be in nice shape so that will bode well for a sale.

Post back what you learn! Thanks for sharing.

This seems to be a silver plated tray. There is no 925 or sterling marking. Take it to any jeweler and you will find out what it is worth.

Your best bet is to see a silversmith, a silver dealer or even a jeweler to ask about your tray. The marking on the tray are not for silver but instead of silver plate.

The tray needs to be tested to find out how much silver is actually in the tray. That is when you can understand how much the tray is actually worth.
