Sterling Silver Trophy

Q: My grandfather won a sterling silver “President’s Cup” trophy at a harness race at Weequahic Park in Newark, N.J., on Oct. 30, 1909. I have a photo of my grandfather receiving the trophy, a tall cup with two handles and a cover topped by a large horse-shaped handle. I also have a copy of an article about the trophy that was published in the Oct. 9, 1909, Newark Evening News and a copy of an article about the race from the Oct. 31, 1909, Newark Sunday Call. My grandfather’s horse, Marique, won the race. The article about the trophy just says it was “designed and manufactured by local men.” Could it have been made at the Tiffany factory that was in Newark? And is the trophy valuable?
