- Shipping: FREE DOMESTIC shipping. We DO ship Internationally but we do NOT insure International orders UNLESS BUYER SPECIFICALLY REQUESTS THIS AND WE ARE ABLE to provide an insurance estimate. It is becoming increasingly difficult to insure international orders and the price can exceed the price of the item, which can negate the sale. If an international shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what YOU pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the ACTUAL shipping costs! This is important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are estimates. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and your prompt payment will hasten the turn-around time.
This TRANSLUCENT WHITE color is often referred to as a 'CLAMBROTH' since it shares this same color with the foregoing. It looks like an opalescent milk glass color. Back in the day these little souvenir cups, plates, etc. were often won at small-town fairs, sold in small businesses to advertise the town, or even sold at a tourist stand during a large event. These were most often used for decoration. Though you DO see antique souvenir pieces commonly from the mid-west it doesn't seem like many of them are found from eastern and east coast towns. A great little example here, check it out!
