It's in excellent used condition but could use a bit of polishing. Leonard Florence grew up in Chelsea, Massachusetts. He graduated from Boston University in 1954. He was hired by Dewey Stone (who paid for his college education) to help run one of his companies, Raimond Silver Manufacturing Co. of Chelsea, Mass. which at the time was losing money.Florence did a great job there and when the company was sold in 1968 for $2.1 million, Florence received half the proceeds. He used the money to start his own company, Leonard Silver, which specialized in low-priced silverplated giftware. Company sales came to $269,000 in its initial year and profits to $14,000.Leonard Silver first operated out of a Chelsea garage, with the entire staff pitching in to do chores: writing orders, polishing silver, and carrying boxes to be shipped. When the company erected an office building across the street, the staff helped pour concrete, thereby enabling Florence to fulfill his promise to teach his employees the business from the ground up. Leonard Silver sold silverplated holloware at one-half to one-third the prices charged for similar goods by competing firms and still made money. In 1979 Leonard Silver merged with Towle Manufacturing Co. To see all our listing, visit: Ika's Trains and Collectables Note #1: I will combine shipping for multiple items.
