as a gift when i left presidency of that group...it was a plate and it had
astrological symbols on it...I;m afraid thro the years i t has gotten dusty and
now i need to wash it..but it doesnt come out to nice...do you have any
tricks..it doesnt have a real shiny coating on it....

   Hi this is Sharon from Texas.  I collect depression glass, vintage pyrex and
   I have always loved Wedgewood(the blue with raised white on it) so I think I
   am going to start collecting that.   I am not an expert on any but buy what
   I like and have books on all but the wedgewood.   I have had a hard time
   finding anything in my city so I turned to ebay.  I have bought a few things
   and have been burned twice so I dont think I am going stay there  well that
   is me.

   Yes dinnerware can be discussed here. Glass, china and everything
   like that. I collect bowls & casseroles, old shot glasses, old
   suburbans(5), and soda bottles( mainly Pepsi & Dew). I'm working on
   putting a list of good books in file. My library knows me by voice on
   the phone, I'm there so much. Laura, if you check out the links
   folder, I have some very good aites in there for looking at china.
   Replacements is great place to look around. ALso check out my ebay
   auctions, I have a ton of different stuff on there now. You may see
   something that sparks your interest, not so much to buy from me, but
   to start to collect.

I started collecting bowls when my granny gave me the colored Pyrex 4
piece set she had for years. Now I have almost 2000 bowls &
casseroles! Only 200 old shot glasses. I sell alot of Pyrex & Fire
King. Stuff I don't keep. Over the years I have paid for everything I
have in my collections. My daughter, who's 23, laughs at my "junk". I
tell her someday she'll laugh all the way to the bank after a big
auction after I go. Luckly my son knows the value of collectibles and
he has a nice collection of "junk" started. I don't handle much
Wedgewood, but I do Pyrex. Don't let a couple bad apples scare you
from ebay. The thing is to read feedback and ask questions to seller
before you bid on stuff. Look to Yahoo auctions for buying.

In mid Ohio the yard sales are pretty much done. Maybe next weekend a
stray or 2. I just won more Taylor Smith Taylor Oasis Green shades of
grandaur. Like I really need more. ;-) But I have a compete ( I
think) collection of the stuff now. I have over 300 shot glasses,
about 2 dozen old trucks, and way too casseroles and bowls. I've been
a busy breaver on eBay last couple days. What is anyone looking for
to add to their collections? Maybe other members have or know where
to find. Remember to check out the photos, links and files once in a
while.

I will second that. Although it is raining so hard here the last couple of days,

Will I started the Collection File by adding my set of Victory
Serving Bowls By Diamond Glass Ware, Indiana, PA from 1929-1932.
Hope you enjoy and that it helps someone else identify theirs as
these were a bugger to track down.

I will take a closer look around the board as soon as I get caught up on my
email. It has been goofy for a couple of days and now it is flooding in.
Washington is getting cold fast. We are making our last trip over the pass to
Yakima for this year in a few days and won't go again till the pass clears up a
bit from the winter mess.
No more short, into sweat pants and webs are beginning to grow on the feet. We
have had enough rain that the geese and ducks are already swimming in the back
pond where they stay for the winter.
