Yes thanks for alerting me on the closed stores thread. I think it is kinda cool, if you list it let me know-the cannon engraving is sort of primitive, like a grade-schooler's sketch, but that makes it interesting. Who knows how all that came about. I haven't gotten into collecting cannon spoons............yet............but if you list it let me know. Also, you never know, maybe someone is only missing one spoon from their cannon silverplate service.
*************** What follows is sig line*************
I collect fine cannon models (patent, arsenal, salesman, maker's, presentation), mug-type brass/copper gunpowder measures, artillery sights/quadrants/shot gauges, cannon firing flintlocks, percussion locks, early artillery books, manuscripts, artillery projectiles, original cannon barrels, etc.
