This petite and finely crafted 2 ½ “hallmarked sterling and fully functional lidded tankard is engraved “O. W. G. S. , Hoylake, Sept. 1926. The initials likely stand for the Old Wykemist Golfing Society. Old Wykehamist is the name given to the alumni of Winchester College, one of the United Kingdom's most famous independent boarding schools. Current pupils are known as Wykehamists in memory of the school's founder, William of Wykeham.
