I added to lot 114 that the flatware is silver plated.
1939-1940 New York World's Fair Small Bronze medal with a raised image of the Trylon and Perisphere and the George Washington Statue with the words, "New York World's Fair 1939" on one side. The back is marked around the rim at top "The World of Tomorrow" featuring the rising sun behind the Trylon and Perisphere, in the center "Today" with a picture of the New York City skyline, and "Yesterday" along the bottom with a Dutch landscape with a windmill. I sold a few of the large version, but I haven't seen the small version until now. Size: 1 1/4" diameter. Condition: Fine, wear and toning.
