Can anyone tell me what this might be worth?
I have a similar 1890s cup for Pittsburgh. Antique Roadshow said cup is worth $50. Bought it for 50 cents in 1965 at a New Jersey barn auction. Your Los Angeles cup in much better shape.

Mr. Wynn: I have a Piitsburgh version of your L.A. cup. My sisters took the cup on the Antiques Roadshow a few years ago and my cup was valued at $50. My cup at least 125 years old. I was told it was a cup female tourist would collect on a visit to a major city in the 2890s, something like the later collection of spoons. I bought my cup for 50 cents at a 1966 auction in a rural New Jersey barn. I was the only bidder. We see very few cups like this on the web.
