Yellowstone National Park - Fishing Cone

SPOON #1 - HSC       [last updated 07-02-2011]



I have three distinct views of this spoon.

Differences to the front:
     N/A

Differences to the back:
     Makers mark is different on stem between all three types
     HSC 3 has name 'Naomi A. Winters' on back of bowl

Other remarks:
     I have two magic lantern slides (65 [Type 1] and 55), a lantern slide print (65 [Type 3]), a photo (4157), a book (Y-SP), and a postcard (HSCYP) of the view in the bowl
     A magic lantern slide (65 [Type 2]) and stereoview (4596) are very similar to the view in the bowl but look carefully at the feet and fishing pole positions
     Need to determine makers mark
     Other markings on the handle include Eagle Nest Rock, Giant Geyser erupting, an Elk head, a Bison head, the Park Bear, and a US emblem with an eagle carrying a shield
