In both Reed & Barton and Watson literature, many of the popular patterns prior to 1910 list an Oatmeal Spoon in their catalogs. Is this a serving piece or was it smaller?

Also, any photos of an example would be most appreciated.

I am also looking for info for

Frappe Spoon
Cereal Spoon
Custard Server
Smelt Server & Fork
Cream Dipper

Thank you in advance for your help on this one!

Maybe I can explain this to you. In Italy we use "cucchiaio pappa" which means baby cereal spoon. "pappa" in English, I think means oatmeal. So maybe it is this.

It is spoon that mommy uses to feed baby with handle at 90 degrees angle. I send you picture if it pleases you via email. I do not know to put picture on internet. I am sorry.

I hope that I explained myself (I do not speak neither write good English) and I have helped you.
