It is quite delicate feeling, is in fine condition, and it appears to be made of something other than silver plate...maybe the nickel silver or pewter someone mentioned on this site that the metal could be. It is very similar to three coin silver spoons I inherited from my mother that were made in England. I read online that McGlashan Clarke Company was the first silverware company in Niagara Falls, Ontario and was followed by Oneida and others. The site said the company operated from 1880 until 1955. I paid $2 for my little spoon. It is thinly constructed (and that makes me wonder about its being pewter), but not quite as thin as my other coin silver spoons.

In doing my research, I found a spoon online, with the Mount Royal Hotel (in Banff) name on it, and marked with the name MCGLASHAN CLARKE CO., as well as the mark McG.C.Co. So, the initials definitely do stand for MCGLASHAN CLARKE CO.<br /><br />I was very interested to learn the history of this company. So my fork, in exactly the same pattern as the spoon in the photo on this site, is more than a 100 years old. Does anyone have any more information about this? <br /><br />google account<br />e-mail address: tboxer.ez@shaw.ca<br />password: xeniamartaAnastasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12951303235322544575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973076120852771175.post-7285573132703939002010-05-05T18:49:35.143-07:002010-05-05T18:49:35.143-07:00It must have been a nice change Hee Hee of pace to...It must have been a nice change Hee Hee of pace to get out metal detecting with your friends.<br />\go kartinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870656555965284675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973076120852771175.post-50461312880329494532010-04-05T13:26:35.039-07:002010-04-05T13:26:35.039-07:00The MCGLASHAN CLARKE &CO made silverware from...The MCGLASHAN CLARKE &CO made silverware from 1899 to 1910. Their work was made in Niagara Falls,Ontario , and Muncie Indiana. The NEVADA on the back could either be the name of the pattern, or more likely it is their designation for nickle silver. At the time that this silverware was made nickle silver was called variously German silver,Brazilian silver, and other names of countries and states.Manson Floydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15807477605656538817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973076120852771175.post-54587347845369241692009-11-22T10:55:19.054-08:002009-11-22T10:55:19.054-08:00Found a Nevada McG. spoon this fall on an inland l...Found a Nevada McG. spoon this fall on an inland lake north of Thunder Bay.
