What is this mark? Possibly old version of Jos Mayer & B

The closest identification that I can find for this old fork is an old Joseph Mayers & Bros. It's not exact, but close. I know that his more common trademark is nothing like this. Does anyone know for sure if that is the manufacturer? If not, what is it? Thanks again for any help.

This is indeed the mark of Joseph Mayers & Bros of Seattle. They made many souvenir mostly of locations in the western US. Forks are harder to find than spoons.
Mayer made many other types of silver including the silver service for the Crusier Washington around 1906.
