Default Old Movie Star Spoons

Hi Pappy, I haven't dusted off my detector for the spring yet but i DID pick up these spoons at a garage sale this weekend…

There are four of them, and at the top, they each have the likeness of an oldtime movie star along with that star's "signature" on the length of the spoon. On the back they all say "Oneida Community" and "Par Plate"

Any ideas on their value or if they were worth the few dollars I paid for them? Thanks in advance Pappy.

Ed in PA.

I googled movie star spoons and found some info for you. Pappy may come back and know more but I got curious after I read your post and googled ... movie star spoons

If you google Oneida movie star spoons there's a fair bit of info to look through. I think they're pretty cool spoons myself but am not really familiar with the stars of that era.
