An ultra rare antique circa 1907 Gorham hotel silver tray, covered with stamped, engraved and applied logos from 28 hotels. This piece was meant to serve as a Gorham salesman’s or showroom sample. In amazing condition for its age, no dents or damage whatsoever. It has polished up beautifully with only a few tiny spots of discoloration and no silver plate loss.
The tray is marked on the back with Gorham marks and the date stamp for the year 1907; some of these hotels opened after 1907 so I would assume this tray was filled in overtime with additional logos as Gorham added more hotels to their roster. The hotels included were some of the grandest in America at that point, A few of the logos are mystery to me but the Hotels represented include:
The Plaza
The Commodore
The Biltmore
The Adelphia
The Savoy Plaza
Barlum Hotel
Longchamps
The Palace
Maillard
The Glen Royal
Hotel La Concha
Hotel Casa Del Rey
The Carolina
Hotel George Washington
The Parker House
The Park Royal
The Baker Hotel Company
The Breakers
The Beekman
The Bancroft
The tray measures 14 inches long by 10 inches wide.
