Hi Piggman1

This spoon looks really simular to the one my Grandmother & Great Grand Mother used w/ they dipped
Levi Garrett Snuff which was in a brown glass jar. The spoon
over time had a brownish like tarnish on it, so i cleaned it up
so i could see if there was any writeing on it & i found on the
back where it said made in U. S. & not U. S. A. and most items
that just said U. S. from what i have read were made prior to
the 1900's i think.

Sincerely

Did you get your nicotine fix cleanin' that spoon off?
My Grandaddy just used his fingers. You must have
some real sofisticated kinfolks. LMAO
