History: The European fad of collecting silver spoons from vacation and travel spots hit the North American continent in full in the mid 19th Century, resulting in a boom in the industry as the silversmithing art found new demand in the tourist sector. These spoons turn up in large collections through to today, a remnant of what was a vastly popular hobby that died down by the turn of the century.
