Spoon with Athenia crest

June 14, 2009
Subject: T.S.S Athenia

Hi I have a silver plated spoon  with the same crest shown on you web page ahoy.tk-jk.net 

It says on the back that it was manufactured by SM.CO, I was wondering if this was a souvenir spoon or from the boat itself.

Thank you for spending time to read this, and I hope you can shed some light on this spoon.

Darren

 
Darren,

I suspect your spoon is a souvenir, with the Athenia crest thereon. 

I could not track down the SM. CO, who may well have gone out of business at this distance in time.

The saving of Souvenir spoons as a hobby is not so prevalent today as it once was.

Best regards, 
Mac.
