    Description

    For your consideration, a rare antique two-handled prize trophy made by Manning, Bowman & Co that stands 7 3/4 inches tall.  It is inscribed:  Public Butter Test Prize 1911 / Rutland County Fair / Won By / "Alfrecha Meadows" / with / Della Dear 249973.  The cup is 4 3/4 inches in diameter at the top.  It is marked on the bottom along with the number 1224.  Composed of copper and pewter (or silverplate)--it shows some wear (on the handles) and leans a bit to the right (likely from a drop years ago).  Don't let this get away from you--it's in lovely condition considering its age.  In case you are wondering, it was purchased from an estate sale in a farm in Rutland, Vermont.  HO--2015--40
