Seller's Description
Kimberley British Columbia Canada Bavarian Souvenir Teaspoon Tea Spoon
The crest on the spoon is mounted crooked and off center, and some of the paint on the rear of the crest seems to be missing (See pictures). I suspect that the crest had come off the spoon at one time and had been glued back on.
I acquired this spoon from an estate sale.
This spoon has a crest that has a picture of a Bavarian carrying a mug of beer with the words "Kimberley BC Bavarian City of the Rockies". The rear of the spoon is stamped "HOLLAND".
The spoon measures 4-5/8 inches (11.7 cm) long X 15/16 inch (2.3 cm) wide (At the widest part of the spoon bowl) and weighs about 15 gr.
From Wikipidia:
Kimberley BC:
Kimberley is a small city in southeast British Columbia, Canada along Highway 95A between the Purcell and Rocky Mountains. Kimberley was named in 1896 after the Kimberley mine in South Africa. From 1917 to 2001, it was the home to the world's largest lead-zinc mine, the Sullivan Mine. Now it is mainly a tourist destination and home to the Kimberley Alpine Resort, a ski area and Kimberley's Underground Mining Railway that features a 750-foot-long (230 m) underground mining interpretive centre complete with operational 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge railway equipment. Recreational pursuits include world-class skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, fishing, whitewater rafting, kayaking, biking, hiking and golfing on championship golf courses. The city has the largest urban park in Canada. At 1977 acres (800 ha), the Kimberley Nature Park is the largest incorporated park in Canada and the paved, non-motorized Rail-Trail linking the cities of Kimberley and Cranbrook make Kimberley a unique four-season resort. Kimberley is also home to a thriving Arts and Cultural scene.
Kimberley incorporated as a city on March 29, 1944. It amalgamated with the former Village of Marysville on November 1, 1968. Following the routing of Highway 95 away from the city, in 1972 Kimberley transformed into the Bavarian City of the Rockies to entice motorists passing through the region to visit. Kimberley's Mine was the Sullivan Mine, and it was the largest lead-zinc mine in the world. The mine ceased operation in 2001.
