New Teaspoon Advice Please
Discussion
Picked these up at a boot sale this morning.
The owner had come across tough times, had lost everything, was sleeping in the back of his van and these were his prized possessions.
He told me he was selling them to pay for enough petrol to visit his mother in Inverness, who was suffering from the Dropsy.
He didn't have a clue as to their true value. So, I paid a 20th of what they're worth. What a steal!
I'll sleep well tonight.
I record the deafening silence in here regarding the upcoming ThyssenKrupp sale to british Liberty Group.
Well, it better rain pounds than 500-pounders, that´s progress.
As said buyer has Indian roots, we might even see some new spoonery rolled (forged) out,
customized for Darjeeling, Assam and Nilgiri ?

Lieber Benni, der Löffel-Krupp ist schon lange untergegangen. Wie bei AEG, Grundig und Rowenta versuchen windige Schurken ein letztes Kapital aus dem einst so großen Namen zu schlagen, ohne daß Substanz dahinter wäre.
Einer dieser Scharlatane trägt regelmäßig zu diesem thread bei, und versucht von der -immernoch vom starken Zusammenhalt und Enthusiasmus geprägten- Tee-rührer-Szene abzuschöpfen. Er brüstet sich regelmäßig mit einem Zeppelin, den er von Honecker für seine Verdienste um das geteilte Deutschland erhalten hatte.
Unser geliebter Löffel-Krupp mit seinen großartigen Silber-Löffeln hatte sein Geschäft in der Blütezeit nach Berndorf in Österreich abgesetzt, und dann nach Mailand erweitert. Dort ist auch der berühmte Bär entstanden, der Teil meiner Sammlung ist:
In Italien wurden dann die Löffel für Espresso immer kleiner, bis sie dann ganz verschwanden.

Just spoken to my AD they’ve got a set of these with box and papers. Just wondering if I should pull the trigger. 
The blue team bought an Archibald Knox antique earlier for £99 and sold for £130 , which is nice .
The entertaining bit was the punch up that broke out when the red team's Krupp Zuffenhausen spoon was under the hammer ,
which seems a harsh ending for it , 2 powerfully built goatie sporting males in the auction room were arguing over whether it
was a 997.1 or a 991.2 edition .
One was wearing a PH cycling jersey .........
There are parts of that what is true , other bits of it be pure fiction from the warped mind of Peri .......

No room for fiction on this thread. We only deal in cold, hard facts.The entertaining bit was the punch up that broke out when the red team's Krupp Zuffenhausen spoon was under the hammer ,
