Day 252- Spoons

My grandmother collected coffee spoons- those little spoons you see on sale at tourist shops everywhere. When I was a little girl, I was fascinated with them. They are all different, and most are over a hundred years old.  The one in the foreground is from the 1892 Chicago’s World Fair, the Columbian Exposition, celebrating the 400th anniversary of Columbus’s arrival in America. I think her mother must have bought it, since Mimi would have only been four years old at the time.

I used a sepia tone and texture in the processing of this photo.
