(2) Dinner forks in the 1903 WESTFIELD pattern which are monogrammed with the house flag of the Northern Navigation Company of Ontario.
Fork is marked on the back:
\" Toronto Silver Plate Co.\"
Barbara J. Conroy in Restaurant China Volume 1 shows this flag on page 172 and describes:
\" Northern Navigation Company; 1899-1983; absorbed North West Transportation Co. in 1900; Northern Navigation Co. of Ontario became Northern Navigation Company Ltd in 1913....offered passenger and freight service on the Great Lakes until 1949 and later freight only; advertised \"Detroit-Duluth cruise\" in 1949 and package freight service in 1965\"
This house flag is also pictured in Richard Luckin\'s \"Dining On the Rails\" on page 332 as it appears on the \"Houseflag\" china pattern of Grand Trunk Pacific.
These fork measures approx. 7 inches long. The collection I have of these has two different size forks and this is the shorter of the two. I have a number of these however I will listing them separately so that you will be recieving the exact items pictured in the listing, as it is described in the listing. If you are interested in more than one or the other size let me know and I will list more.
This pair is in good used condition. Forks have a number of small nicks, and some heel wear. The flag mark on one of them shows very little wear and is still pronounced and legible, and overall it is quite good. The second fork has some wear to the monogram and is less than perfectly legible as should be visible in the photos. Tines are a little crooked. A little wear but overall good condition.
Take a good look at the photos as pair is being sold as-is.
