Vintage Souvenir Spoon Masonic Temple Chicago, ILL; I recently purchased a collection of sterling and plated silver collector spoons, this one of the Masonic Temple in Chicago, Illinois.

I also have another Masonic Spoon that I will be offering.
This spoon measures 5 7/8 inches long and the spoon is 1 1/8 inches wide. So many markings on this spoon I will try to describe them all. Taking pictures of these spoons and getting the very small detail of the design was very difficult.
This silver plated spoon is marked, and embossed as follows; the front top of the handle embossed with "Chicago", "Eagle with the shield of the American Flag" below that is an embossed "bull". On the inside of the face of the spoon is the embossed "Masonic Temple" with the words "Masonic Temple Chicago". On the back of the spoon at the top of the handle is the embossed building of "Museum Jackson Park" with the words appearing under the building, further down the handle is the embossed building of "Fort Dearborn" with the words appearing under it.
There is so much detail to all of the embossing. The initials "W.B." are also embossed on the lower end of the back of the handle. This spoon is in excellent condition and would be a great addition to your collector of spoons.
If you know someone is a Mason, this would make a wonderful gift. If you are a collector of Souvenir Spoons we have quite a few in our store, to view them please do a search for "spoons" or "souvenir".
