Description
1893 World's Columbian Exposition Sterling Silver Souvenir SpoonAbout 4 1/8 inches (demitasse size); in good, but tarnished condition.
Columbus' head on finial, with "World's Columbian Exposition" underneath. Handle has various nautical devices. On back of handle is the image of a crowned individual, likely King Ferdinand since the hair is short and uncovered, along with a globe and dates. The bowl has the image of a sailing ship. I have been told this is the Santa Maria, but don't know for certain.
Marked sterling; possibly by Alvin-Beiderhase Co. (please see photo).
