THE JEWELERS’ CIRCULAR AND HOROLOGICAL REVIEW
Aug. 17, 1892
pg 23
quote:
The George W. Shiebler Co., 179 Broadway, New York, are the patentees and manufacturers of an Ecclesiastical or St. John’s souvenir spoon which will undoubtedly become very popular. It is illustrated and described in their advertisement on another page. The salient features of the spoon are a full-length figure of St. John in high relief which adorns the front of the handle, a fine etching of the Cathedral of St. John the Beloved Disciple, which is now in course of erection in New York, and which will cost when completed over $4,000,000; and the cross of the King’s Daughters which ornaments the back of the bowl. The decorations of the spoon are extremely artistic, and the general appearance of the spoon inspires admiration even among the most phlegmatic. The spoon is adapted fora King’s Daughters souvenir, and as such it will undoubtedly find a ready sale.
