AT&SF (Santa Fe) Railway Mimbreno Bread Plate
Another attractive Mimbreno China piece,... this is a 7 3/4" bread plate, the ivory version. The bread plate is in mint condition, no chips, cracks, or flea bites. The bread plate has the full back stamp, "Syracuse China, 97-E (date code 1968), Ancient Mimbreno Indian Designs, copyrighted by Santa Fe Railway, Made Expressly for Santa Fe Dining Car Service, Old Ivory." The bread plate is 7 3/4" in diameter. Mimbreno railroad china was used on the Santa Fe Super Chief from 1937 to 1871. It was designed by Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, a Harvey System employee. She was given the commission to design china based on the concept of the Membres Indians. Her resultant designs are widely collected to this day. A really great piece to add to your railway dining car china collection!
