Title:
Souvenir spoon with ship, "Alaska Marine Highway" in bowl
Description:
A small, metal souvenir spoon with a design of an Alaska Marine Ferry at the end of the handle and the label, "Alaska". Etched in the spoon is the label, "Alaska Marine Highway". It is a relatively new item.
Notes:
According to June Hall, this was probably made in Europe. As the spoon collecting fashion waned, fewer and fewer spoons were made, so later spoons such as this are actually rarer than the older spoons which were made in great quantity.
