VINTAGE ROGERS SILVERPLATE COLLECTIBLE US PRESIDENT SPOON SET OF 24 :
$58.00

This is a set of 24 vintage Wm. Rogers silver plate spoons depicting the first 26 presidents of the United States, from George Washington to Theodore Roosevelt, except for Chester Arthur (there are 24 spoons because Chester Arthur, the 21st president, is missing, and Grover Cleveland was the 22nd and 24th president). The top of each spoon features a raised bust of the president, his number in line, the years of his presidency, and his name in raised letters. The bowl of each spoon commemorates a different event for each presidency with great detail (see the list below). The spoons are 6 inches long, 1 1/4 inches wide, and are marked \"Wm Rogers Mfg. Co. IS.\" They are in excellent condition, but tarnished. They will polish beautifully, but we leave that decision to the buyer.
