Back in '94 I went to a garage sale and saw these beautiful plates. I asked the gentleman how much he was asking for all of them and he told me $4.00. I asked him why he was selling them at such a low price and he told me they belonged to his grandmother and they were moving her to an assisted living place and he just wanted to get rid of all the "junk."
Needless to say I grabbed them all. As you can see I have them all in my hutch looking nice. The tableware includes...
