is an early photograph of plates by this firm.
(Sometimes images are reversed}
Top: No. 7 Rabbit plate, No. 11 Anchor and Yacht plate, No. 6 Owl
plate.
Bottom: No. 14 Chick plate, No. 10 Indian Head plate, No. 8 Cupid plate
We also know they made a No. 15 National plate, No. 9 Niagara
Plate, No. 17 Ancient Castle Plate, No. 2 Forget Me Not plate, No. 5 Three Kittens plate, and
many more.
As I have stated upon the web page for opalescent glass, I do not
consider that these pieces are "Goofus glass"
but rather Opal (milk) glass with "Goofus-style" decoration. Surely, every
Goofus glass collector has lots of these tucked away as part of
their broadband accumulation.
