Follow up to salt and pepper set.
Question:
Larry, In your Q&A you responded to a question about a salt and pepper that it was not Red Wing and therefore not Random Harvest. It is a set made by Vernon Kilns, a California company that was a contemporary of Red Wing. A number of its patterns and shapes are complementary to Red Wing. RJ

Lotus dinner plate
Question:
I have a plate that belonged to my grandmother who passed away in 1973. It has the Redwing symbol on the back. It measures 10 1/4 by 10 1/4 inch square. The plate is white. The pattern color has green, black, light brown and some patches of rose in a floral pattern. The pattern itself reminds me of oriental or Hawaiian It fills much of the plate and consists of a white flower with 8 dominant petals. At the left of the bottom petals is a black something. Perhaps a leaf? and at the top of the plate is another black leaf. The light brown pieces look like sticks or very thin leaves. I am thinking that as far as a time period, perhaps the 1940′s or 50′? I am just not sure. /Thanks for any info you can give me. Jane

Bob White Spotted in “The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit”
Question:
Not a question but a really fun fact for you, Larry, as well as your dinnerware enthusiasts. Turner Classic Movies aired "The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit" the other night, starring the great Gregory Peck and Jennifer Jones. When Gregory Peck’s character was invited to lunch (as part of a job interview and to meet the big boss), low and behold, the table was completely set with the Bob White pattern, even the pitcher! As a collector of Bob White myself, I must say that this scene was a super-cool, delightful surprise. Best, Luanne
