boldly on to e-bay



Cupboard raids can yield treasures, too. Dorcas found the creamer and sugar bowl with lid on Good Friday.


No cracks, no hidden defects. Showing some use on the gold trim. She acquired this set when the girls home in Long Island was closing down. Let me guess about 1978. They were left behind and she rescued them.


We used them in the era when grandparents, Ivan and Della, Lester and Elva, visited our home at 542 East Orange. Mikasa Rosetta, if you like names. Give them to re-uzit?


I put them on e-bay kind of for the fun of it and to keep in practice. It's been a year and a half since I put something on e-bay.

camer hides the crack




Looks like a creamer in perfect condition. The back, however, suffers a bad crack and spots of super glue which tried to repair it.


Cleaning one of the cupboards on her day off, Dorcas chucked it. It had no family history. Well, Dorcas remembers her regret when she dropped it. Well, the family of the person who made and painted it.


Seems too bad.
