FOSTORIA Blue JUNE Etch 8 3/4" LUNCHEON PLATE, EXCELLENT CONDITION! 9 AVAILABLE!

Description

This listing is for one (1) Fostoria azure Blue June etched 8 3/4" (8.75") luncheon plate made from the year 1928 to 1944.  The luncheon plate is from my husband's blue June collection, and is in excellent pre-owned condition with no flakes, nicks, or chips.
Fostoria's "June" pattern was one of the most highly sought after patterns by brides of the depression era, and today is the most
collected pattern of the depression era "elegant" glassware patterns.
The brides-to-be of the day would visit their local drugstore or department store to choose the pattern and color of their desired wedding crystal for their wedding registry.
As a fun bit of history for you, I have added a photo of an old drugstore storefront we happened to find on a recent trip to Texas.  By zooming in on the photo, you can see the Fostoria advertisement painted on the store's windowpane.
It is quite common for the "elegant depression glassware" pieces to have both microscopic bubbles and what I refer to as "acid faults" which occurred at the time of manufacture.
The Fostoria decorators inadvertently left microscopic disturbances resulting from the acid or etching tool they were using in the etching process.  These "acid faults" can appear to the naked eye as a nick or scratch in the glass.
The best way to discern these areas are "acid faults" and not scratches is to study the piece with a magnifying glass of some type.  As these things occurred at the time of manufacture, they do not affect the value of the piece.  By using a magnifying glass, I have seen tiny specks of dirt and bits of string in Fostoria June pieces.
I will ship the luncheon plate to you via USPS First Class Mail with insurance and tracking.
I will gladly accept the return of the luncheon plate within 30 (thirty) days of your receiving it with the return shipping at the buyer's expense, and provided there has been no damage or alteration to the plate.
Thank you for stopping by my listings!
