Spanish American War 1898 Admiral Dewey Flagship Olympia Manila Spoon Antique
Spoon made by the "Nat'l Silver Plate Co."
4-3/8" long
References May 1st, 1898
U.S. Flagship Olympia is on the spoon, American flag is on the reverse of the handle
A caricature of Dewey is on the handle
Used, as-is. In overall good condition. We do not know if the grip part of the handle has a different curve from the stem, or if that is a bend in the handle. It feels normal when held. See attached pictures. Ruler in pictures is not included in sale.
I know that these are relatively inexpensive souvenirs of the Spanish-American War history of Admiral/Commodore Dewey and the Olympia in Manila Bay Philippines, but I thought it was pretty cool nonetheless and picked it up.
