[QUOTE="MrNate, post: 981678, member: 5515"]Good evening everyone, I had a few thrift store finds this week and another online story to share with everyone. Here's my finds below. The little baby fork is International prelude pattern. Found at a shop close to my home for a whopping 25 cents. The salt and pepper shaker are super cool, I found them in plain view at another local thrift store and the price was $2. But my favorite find of the bunch was a complete online gamble. The bowl/dish in the center of the photo was one that I find by searching [U]far and wide[/U] on the internet, in fact I found the listing 5 states away from where I live... This one was listed as "silver dish" for $10. Upon inquiring about the item, the owner couldn't find any marks on it to share with me. It just looked too good, so I worked out a deal where they would ship it to me for $17 total. Good gamble, as the little marks were hidden on the outside edge of the bowl. Can someone help me with the maker and the time period for this one?
