CHINESE EXPORT SILVER SPANISH- / PHILIPPINE-AMERICAN WAR ERA KEGEL BOWLING TROPHY GOBLET, having three figural bamboo stems holding up a semi-ovoid well with engraved bamboo tops and leaves around the base, raised on a round foot featuring a chased and repousse dome top depicting roots and rocks, one side of bowl with presentation engraving, which reads "Iloilo Kegel Club / Champion / Handicap September 1898 / CAPTURED / IN INSURGENT BARRACKS / Iloilo Feb. 11, 1899". Side edge of foot impressed with "WANG / HING / 90" mark for Wang Hing & Co. of Hong Kong. Total weight: 13.365 ozt. Late 19th century. 9" HOA, 3 7/8" D rim.
Catalogue Note: On February 18, 2013, The Northern Virginia Daily published an article regarding this goblet by Richard Hoover, titled "Silver loot twice taken". In 1898, this trophy was awarded a month after Manilla surrendered to the Americans, but an uprising in Iloilo led to insurgents to gain control over the Spanish forts and barracks. By early 1899, the Americans moved upon the city and took over the insurgent fort, which noted in the additional engraving on the goblet.
Good to very good overall condition with some wear, surface scratches, and nicks, several dents mostly to bowl, causing the rim to be out of round.
