I'm not sure.
I'll have to have somebody flip it over to see.
I never thought about that.

Never thought I’d be hitting the water this early in the season, but conditions were just right. Visibility was rough before dawn, but having access to high-grade optics made a big difference. Not gonna lie, the clarity and precision felt military-grade. If you're serious about catching more and missing less, it's worth checking out the innovations coming from https://www.agmglobalvision.com/night-vision . They’re doing impressive things in electro-optics that actually help in real-world outdoor use.

Anybody know anything about this?
I don't even know how old it is exactly.
60+ years at least.

I really appreciate you sharing this! The idea of making call centers more eco-friendly is such a game-changer. It's so great that there are practical solutions like solar panels and waste management systems that help reduce energy use. I didn't realize how much sustainability could improve employee focus and stamina too! The article you found sounds super informative and worth checking out. Thanks for bringing it to my attention—it’s a fascinating way to combine green practices with better workplace environments!

Hi!
Please post pictures of the dish, close ups of front and back and any manufacturer markings! 
Condition makes a big difference in value as well.
Look forward to seeing your pictures.

Hello,
I have a dish made around the mid nineties.  It is 13" long and 6" at the widest point of dish.  There is a scene of a building called "State Normal and Dormitory", Spearfish, So. Dakota.
Does anyone have an idea as to its worth?

Antique Questions Forum / Ovington Brothers Co Dessert ware?

I'm curious if anyone has information on this knife and fork set. I assume it is a dessert set because of size but it could be for another purpose. This set was used on the Queen Mary.

Identifying an antique’s origin and value can be tricky, especially with pieces that lack clear markings. Researching similar items, checking for maker’s marks, and understanding historical production methods all help. Sometimes, even small details like the type of wood or construction techniques can give clues. If you're dealing with an item that requires more in-depth research, expert analysis or academic resources can be useful.
