Title

Spoon from the ship S.S. Weehawken

Description

Small silver spoon engraved with the name "S.S. Weehawken"

This does NOT seem to be from the Civil War monitor named after our fair township, which was the "USS Weehawken," as it was a naval vessel.

This may be from a ship of that name of the Anglo-American Oil Company, built in 1891, which is mentioned in the June, 1907 issue of "The Steamship" as having been equipped with "Silley's Patent Airtight Smoke Box Door."
