Turkey Day..........

                                              (Author's Collection)
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. As you can see we cleaned our plate here at Vintage Ford Facts.

The plate is Buffalo China, as compared to the more common Shenango. Just think of the stories this plate could tell! Charles Sorensen may have ate one of his many steaks off this very plate or Henry Ford could have had his 'rabbit food' served on it. These were used in various Ford cafeterias and executive offices in the 1930s before Ford switched to Shenango. We will delve into Ford china & cutlery at a later date. I'm off to go get more pie.
