ADORABLE EARLY ANTIQUE BABY DISH w LITTLE CHICK n WORM! I call this little baby dish "Early Bird Gets the Worm". Dating to the early 1900s, probably 1920s or 30s, this nice heavy American Art Pottery feeding bowl measures about 7" in diameter and 1 3/8" tall/ It is old and has been lovingly used, no maker's mark on the bottom.

The dish is shaped like the early Roseville juvenile ware pieces that are so rare and sought after, and it is probably about the same age. It's white with a thin blue pinstripe around the lip and a decal of a baby chick in a pastoral setting in the center. The little chicken is looking at the ground at a little worm. Behind the bird are little purple flowers that look like violets.

The little bowl or plate has a hairline, as shown in the pictures, on the lip, plus some little nicks around the edge and on the bottom. The bottom of the bowl show scratches where some little tyke certainly enjoyed his or her cereal. Despite this, the decal is still amazingly intact and truly endearing. Sold in AS FOUND condition, this is a warm and lovely collectible antique piece that wouold be great as part of a collection of baby feeding bowls and American Art pottery from the depression era.

LOVELY ANTIQUE FLORAL FRUIT BOWL by SALEM USA This is a lovely vintage mixing or fruit bowl I purchased out of an estate in West Virginia over 15 years ago. It is about 9 1/2" in diameter and a little over 3" deep, and though I am unsure, I'd estimate it to date to the 1920s to 30s.



The bowl has a splendid design on off white porcelain with an airbrushed green border and a delightful floral bouquet in the center in soft hues of orange, pink, purple, blue, and green. A Victorian inspired raised relief design adorns the sides, and the bottomis stamped by the maker in gold "Salem U.S.A.".

The bowl is in excellent condition overall with only a faint hairline on one side that is not detracting or noticeable in my opinion. This would be a great display piece to add color and charm to any decor!

LOVELY VINTAGE LADY HEAD VASE BETTY or LANA 6.5in Still with its orignal hand written $1.50 price on the bottom, this 6 1/2" lady headvase dates back to the 1950s or 60s. I believe she is supposed to be Betty Grable or Lana Turner...not sure but she is a classic. Cold painted, musch of her lipstick and most of her eyebrows and eyeliner have rubbed off. Also, her flower on her dress and the dress piping has also rubbed off a bit. Finally, though not chipped or repaired, she does have a stress or age crack that is very faintly defined under her mouth and around her neck towards the back.

She is not mint, but this is yet another desireable and sought after style of head vase. She is yelow in person, not beige as the pictures may look. Demure and lovely, this piece is sure to make a nice addition to the most advanced of collections!

VINTAGE ART POTTERY TURQUOISE BUTTERFLY PLANTER POT What a nice planter! In the style of McCoy and USA pottery, this glossy finish greenish turquoise dish looks to date to the 1940s or 50s. It measures approximately 9 1/4" wide, 5 5/8" deep, and 3 3/8" high.

The embossed design has a nice relief and is quite lovely with its repeating design of flowers (roses?), leaves, and a nicely detailed butterfly on each of the two long sides.

In excellent condition, the planter is free of damage or repair. There is a little wear on the bottom and a few small spots where it misglazed, but that's quite common with this genre of American Art pottery. Unmarked, I would classify this as similar quality of USA and McCoy pottery.
