50s Set of 12 Swizzle Sticks From The Buffalo Hotel Statler Red Spoon Made In The U. S.a. Eagle Barware Bar Cocktails

As Buffalonians, my husband and I loved collecting Buffalonia, and these Hotel Statler Swizzle Sticks ( twelve) are just some of the MANY things we now need to find good homes for. There are twelve stick/spoons.... six are in good shape, and 6 show signs of wear.....There is one that is from the Statler Hilton, and has a crest instead of an "S"....but I am including it to make an even dozen. All are made in the USA by EAGLE, so probably from 1950s. These will make a cute Anniversary or housewarming gift for anyone married there, had their reception there, honeymooned there...etc. Probably date from the 1950s, after the glass swizzle sticks were replaced by plastic . I also have a blue glass etched one from the 40's that I am selling for about $50. 00 The Hotel changed its name to Statler Towers in 1984 (see below). Each stick measures 6 inches long.

History: The second Buffalo Statler ( 1923) was gradually converted to offices starting in 1948 (when WBEN-TV began using the building as their first studios) because it had more hotel rooms than the city could support. In 1984 the last hotel rooms were closed and the building was renamed Statler Towers, although its ballrooms remained in use for catered events and banquets. After a failed renovation attempt into a combination of hotel and condos in the late 2000s, the building went into bankruptcy, and was auctioned in August 2010. On March 15, 2011, the property was acquired by developer Mark D. Croce, who is currently refurbishing the building as Statler City. The public rooms on the lower floors reopened on Dec 31, 2011 with the upper floors set to reopen later.[4]
