    This great PRR piece is a flea market find. I would like to know what it would have been used for if anyone knows. My guess is pancake syrup holder. It is 6.25 inches high. Also, this piece does not have the date in the box date code. I am assuming the date code is 13M? Does anyone know what this date is? Thank you and Happy Holidays to all!

      It's PRR - Pennsylvania Railroad. I don't think this was used for pancake syrup.

      Here's a creamer:

      Another listing says this is a hot water/coffee pot:

      Someone here might know what your item is:

      It's absolutely a syrup pitcher and a photograph can be found in the Silver Banquet book of Railroad silver. Nice flea market find!
