Lot: 16 Description: OTTO MEARS SPOON – Sterling silver spoon with Otto Mears bust on the handle and embossed mountain scene with Rainbow Route in the bowl. This rare and desirable relic was thought to have been given to attendees of a convention held in Silverton and hosted by Otto Mears for the executives and potential investors of the railroad in 1890. The piece is stamped, “Sterling”, but no manufacturers marks shown. One of the stars of this issue and will be a welcome addition to the new caretaker’s collection.
