Full set of 35 presidential spoons + original pamphlet

This is the entire set of 35 commemorative spoons of the American presidents, from President George Washington up to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Made in 1970 by the Rogers company.This set includes the 12 original boxes as well as the original pamphlet booklet from 1970, titled "American Presidents Commemorative Spoon Collection Silverplate Edition." The pamphlet has some numbers written on it -- it looks like somebody was doing some math to add up the price -- and each box has penciled notes on the back, noting which presidents are in each box. The boxes are a blue felt-like substance, with a plastic cover and a white cardboard backing. Since these are the originals, some of the cardboard backings are loose (it looks like the manufacturer glued them to the box). The spoons look like they could use a good polishing, but they've been left in their boxes all these years.
