I have come across a spittoon, It has Union Pacific RR with a train stamped on each side of it. It is copper and brass, it is 12" tall.If any one has any information about it please e-mail me. Thank You

These are fairly common, and NOT OLD.
They are probably fakes, not reproductions.
Fakes are items that never existed on the RR while reproductions are replicas of an older item.
Hope this helps.

Practical Etiquete suggests using a more specific heading than "Question" for any inquiry here, so readers aren't forced to open your post just to find out what your question is about. I'm personally interested in just about any railroad topic, but might skip yours if you don't offer a clue up front. e.g. "U.P. Spittoons" or whatever. No flaming here just a personal opinion to make boards like this easier for all users.
