This is from my personal Carnival Collection, This is my Favorite Plate!
As you can see the Irradiance is Phenomenal, One of the very Best I’ve seen on a Carnival Glass Piece, Another Nice aspect of this Plate is the Fact that it has Souvenir Lettering, from a town called Linesville, Believe it or not these pictures were taken in the Shade!
Best Regards

Wow! No wonder it's your favorite; it's unbelievable.
Just purchased this beauty myself minus the souvenir lettering. Love it and had no idea what it's about. Is there anything else you are willing to share about it? I know it's depression but maybe a time frame it was manufactured. Thank you for sharing. dml
Thanks Jackie!
Dml, Congrats its not Depression glass, its Carnival glass and it was produced by Dugan and the pattern is called Fish Scales and Beads during the early 1900s.
Very Nice!
You have some amazing pieces on here Shawn. Thank you for sharing them with us. I believe I have found at least one, possibly two, pieces of carnival glass for the first time. It would be greatly appreciated if you could take a look at my show and tell posting and share your immense knowledge on these items.. If not no big deal. Have a great evening and week ahead my friend!! : )
I was not aware of how breathtaking these sorts of items look until I found one myself. At least what I think is carnival glass until confirmed by an expert such as yourself. A million different colors abound.....
Thanks Electrobacco, I saw your pieces very nice, I see you already have the information you need on them, btw I like that.... *Immense Knowledge*
