Scope and Contents
For almost 25 years, Netter maintained a cordial correspondence with Phoebe Phillips Prime, a leading specialist in early American silver. The two visited each other from time to time, attended seminars together, and made study trips to exhibits and museums. Prime was a major organizer of the landmark 1937 silver exhibit in Philadelphia sponsored by the Pennsylvania Society of Colonial Dames of America. This led to the publication in 1938 of Three Centuries of Historic Silver which Prime compiled and edited.
