Scrimshaw Artist Marks and Signatures

I have been collecting scrimshaw artist marks and signatures over the years as a
way to help collectors asking me who may have done the work on their piece of art.
I have decided to share what I have compiled. This is by no means a complete list but
will continue to grow over time. Hope it helps.
