Default YOUR DREAM ITEM

Posted By: Silver King

My great great grandfather was Silver King and I will forever be searching for two of his items. 1st was a pocketwatch he received from Von Der Ah back in 1887, the last known whereabouts of the pocketwatch was a jeweler by the last name of Gradwohl in St. Louis back in 1943. It has the inscription Charley King. 2nd, a large photo of Silver King that sat above his fireplace. My grandmother, who was Silver Kings granddaughter, told me the picture was beautiful (she used to live with him). I tried contacting relatives but nobody has seen it for 50 years. I really wanted to show either one of these items to my grandmother, but she passed away last month and I never found the items. I did find some great cards and photos that she had never seen her entire life.
