Statue of Liberty

You can see New York City and you also can see Jersey City.

Two, a right one and a left one (sorry, couldn't resist).

The statue itself... the copper part... is 151 feet 1 inch overall; Liberty is 111 feet 1 inch from her heel to the top of her head. Including the pedestal, from ground level to the top of the torch is 305 feet 1 inch.

To many Americans she also conveyed a profoundly personal message. The millions of immigrants who were landing at New York City in the early twentieth century saw in this majestic figure their first intimation of a new life. In her uplifted arm they read a message of welcome that said, "This vast republic wants me!" By 1910 public schools in some large cities were reenacting in pageants (with a teacher as the statue) the gathering of immigrants into an inclusive nation.

The use of the statue to identify America with an active promotion of freedom received further emphasis in the Liberty Bond drives and parades of World War I and from the ideological mobilization of the United States against totalitarian regimes during and after World War II.

In domestic affairs, embattled images of the statue also energized campaigns for civil liberties and women's rights.

The people of France gave the Statue to the people of the United States in recognition of the friendship established during the American Revolution. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty has grown to include freedom and democracy as well as this international friendship. The Statue was completed in France in July, 1884 and arrived in New York Harbor in June of 1885 on board the French frigate "Isere" which transported the Statue of Liberty from France to the United States. In transit, the Statue was reduced to 350 individual pieces and packed in 214 crates. The Statue was re-assembled on her new pedestal in four months time. On October 28th 1886, the dedication of the Statue of Liberty took place in front of thousands of spectators. She was a centennial gift ten years late.

The postage rate for 1st Class mail was 37 cents. There were many different commemoritives issued. For the rate change they had some Flag and Antique Toy stamps with no amounts listed on them.

If the spoon is sterling or pure silver it should be marked as so. Also a manufacturer mark should be on the spoon. A silver spoon could be worth $5 in metal alone. Now add that it is a spoon, has a theme and depending on the manufacturer and craftsmanship the price is going up. Also just in case it could be folk art and is a hand made one time piece of craft without a mark of any sort the price could go up. My guess is that a tourist plated piece could go for $15. Silver could go for $20 to $50 and folk art however much someone is willing to pay.

The 151 foot high Statue of Liberty is made of 300 separate copper plates that are each about the thickness of a penny. The copper plate are fastened to an iron framework designed by French engineer Alexandre-Gustave Eiffel, who also built the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The statue was assembled in Paris, then taken completely apart and the pieces were loaded onto a ship that sailed to New York City. The statue was reassembled on a 154 foot high base built at its present location, giving it a total height of over 300 feet.

The inscription on the tablet in her left hand reads: July lV, MDCCLXXVl. The date that the Declaration of Independence was signed

The stamp without any face value shown is worth 39 cents. It can be used for that amount of postage. Check the USPS web site for pictures and other things.
