Description of this plate in the 19
82 supplementary guide to -
"Pairpoint's First Fifty Plates" reads:
"The City of New Bedford sought to have a presentation gift
available to select dignitaries & visitors which would be unique to
New Bedford & would not be available elsewhere. The final decision
was to commission a cup plate incorporating the seal of
New Bedford as the design. 250 clear cup plates were pressed
for use of the City of New Bedford only & were to be given to
visitors & dignitaries as seen fit. Because of the
tremendous interest by the cup plate collectors, the city
decided to make the cup plate available in various colors
through the New Bedford Glass Museum. The only stipulation was
they were not allowed to issue "clear" cup plates".
This cup plate has the words Nova Bedfordia Condita, A. D. 1787-
Civitatis Regimine Donata, A. D. 1847, which is the year
New Bedford was founded.
On a window sill, these cup plates capture the sun beautifully,
further accentuating the intricate designs & color.
Unique gifts, conversational & historical items, wedding or party favors,
housewarming or shower gifts, butter pats, coasters,
tea bag caddies, cupcake, jewelry or doll dishes, etc.!
