Different Stamps On Bottom Of Plate...
« on: September 29, 2013, 06:18:11 pm »
Hello

I am wondering why they would use two different stamps on the bottom of the same kind of plate.
Ex: Here is my plate:




Here is the same plate, on Ebay:

could you take a pic of the underside of your plate...but this time stand further away so that we can see the entire plate....that ebay plate looks the same...but..i think its deeper than yours
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

The reason is usually because the one on ebay is a re- make of an earlier pattern !! They just updated the stamp sometime between the two !! Not unusual to do that with a popular pattern !!

In addition, different distributors sometime required different markings - something unique - so they could say sold "sold exclusively at ___".

That is what help make Tiffany, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, etc.  so popular and establish the higher end markets.

Prince Edward Island, Canada. Harvesting cabbages the last few weeks and finished that field. Started harvesting turnips again last week and will be harvesting until early December

Mart, do you eat leftover cornbread and sweet milk?  Just had some.  Grew up eating that as a treat!  :)

I love turnips. Always have. Didn't like them so much when we were in the warehouse trimming them, and the cooler door opened several times. The smell of rotten turnips almost knocked me over!!! I hate cabbages though and I'm glad we are done of those. I am sick of looking at green all the time. Lol  ;D

Mart , your turnips are green? I have never seen green ones before. Only purple.. so far  :P

Hubby likes it with sweet milk,, I prefer buttermilk !!  Yes, we do all that country stuff !! If you like buttermilk,, try popcorn in it !! Was a favorite of my Grandads !!

Should have phrased that better !!  No, ours are the same purple globe but the tops,,green part are what I was referring to !!  If it grows,, I like it !!  Love vegetables of all kinds !!

I have only seen white/yellow and a reddish color turnip.  Never seen a purple one.  Seen purple potatoes!  Love turnip and mustard greens!

Wow.  I am a popcorn-holic and have never heard of it that way.  Guess I am heading to the stove tonight (I still like it made in a pot on the stove not that microwave stuff.)

I should post a pic of my grandmothers original electric popcorn popper.  Still works and I use it occassionally!
