In today’s mail

Today’s mail more than made up for the fact that there was no mail delivery yesterday because of the Presidents Day holiday.

I received two Ebay purchases for my Wallace China collection. The first and most majestic is a 15” platter in the Pioneer Trails pattern. I won’t gloat beyond saying I got it for about half of what antique dealers are asking.

The second package contained two soup/chili bowls in the Rodeo pattern made by True West. True West acquired the rights to reproduce the various Wallace China Westward Ho lines after Wallace China went out of business in 1964. I already had a couple of these bowls, so now we can serve chili to a party of four.
