Back in the 1940’s
when I was a young lad my mother used to take me to the Broadway Theater every Tuesday
evening during the summer months for the movies. Usually there would be 2 “B” movies,
Pathe’ News, a Pete Smith short, a cartoon and the Coming Attractions. None of
this interested her.
She took me
because of the free giveaways. For the 2 tickets we received 2 pieces of a
place setting-- one week it would be a bowl, the next a plate then cups and
saucers etc. By the end of the summer we had enough chinaware for the entire
family.
As I recall
the quality was fairly good since we ate off of them for many years until my mother
purchased replacements at Jordan Marsh.
