I have some matching dishes that do not have anything on the back. Don't know why. I have several really cool serving dishes that say God Bless our home on side. However it doesn't say colonial homestead on back. Do you know how to determine if they are just replicas if not stamped on bottom.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11908812022228852003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019493705058948268.post-15070333472338356372018-04-16T19:45:58.770-04:002018-04-16T19:45:58.770-04:00I'm having trouble finding any information as ...I'm having trouble finding any information as to the years the different series were made.

Maybe that's why we had the dishes? I remember going in there - I was maybe 6 years old and there was no conveyer belt where you put your groceries to pay for them. There was a board she would pull to move them forward. When those conveyer belt came out - that was really progressive!

And how nice that you found the affordable teapot. Even nicer to have the cream and sugar as a gift! I hope you can find a plate or two and a couple of teacups so you can enjoy using them together and thinking of good times growing up.

As a teenager in the 60's I did not like them. We had sofas with Colonial fabrics and I remember "colonial" style was popular. Of course, I was a teenager and this is typical that teens usually don't like what is familiar. My Mom is 85 now and I think I saw a couple pieces in the kitchen last time I was there.Bernideenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05323630851115338825noreply@blogger.com
