Silver plated teaspoons have been used as a commemorative item since the late 1890s. Being both affordable and small (and thus easy to carry home), they were gladly purchased by travelers as proof of their time away from home. This fad extended into the corporate world as a way of commemorating significant events or anniversaries, as well as being a promotional tool. This boxed spoon was produced to commemorate the 50th anniversary of talking books for the RVIB. The silver ornate handle is topped by an enamel disk, within which is the silver RVIB Lighthouse logo on a sky blue background, and the name of the Institute in silver on a dark blue background.1 silver plated teaspoon with enamel circle at base of handle1934 - 1984 Commemorating 50 Years of Talking Book Service With Compliments Royal Victorian Institute for the Blindadvertising, royal victorian institute for the blind
