I don't know if this is noteworthy, but thought I would pass on the picture of this piece with the original label. Probably the importers is my guess since it is in English. It is hard to read in the picture but says: "Bestmaid REG US PAT OFF". Not very illuminating to me, but maybe someone is interested. Bowl is about 8 inches wide and 4 1/2 high. Label is about an inch long and 3/4 inch tall.

Perfect! Knowing a label helps so much, tanks!
Or thanks...spell check got me again!
Thanks for the info. I was really surprised to see the label. it is so obvioius, I would expect most people to take it off first thing. This piece was used, it has a couple chips on the inside of the rim. I love it all the same.
Hi fishiowa! I was just wondering if this has the curved "Czechoslovakia" mark?
I can just see in the second photo "Czechoslov ___".
Hi Vetraio50: it is indeed curved, and large. it is about 2 inches long altogether.
