Description

The fork and spoon are distinguished by a circular disc at the end of the handle. The symbol of the 1972 Summer Olympic Games in Munich is depicted on it. The handle is engraved with the words "Munich", the Olympic rings and the year "1972".
The design of the cutlery was created as early as 1967. From 1972 onwards, it also displayed the symbol of the Olympic Games in Munich and, designated as "Olympicnic", was one of the souvenirs officially approved by the National Olympic Committee (NOK). (AVS)
