    And when was the last time anything was made in the USA; much less Los Angeles. Lol.
    Anyway, does anyone know what these guys are named? They've got no pattern.

      Wallace China existed in Los Angeles from 1931 until 1959. They produced vitreous china tableware, mainly for institutional use (restaurants, hotels, cafeterias). The undecorated pieces are generic open stock sold at restaurant supply outlets. Wallace also made some decorated open stock and a huge number of custom designed decorated pieces. I'm guessing at the size - this appears to be a 7" bread plate. The date code on the back (5-K) tells this plate was made in February of 1941.

      Wow AF. Thx again!
      Would you happen to know of an online resource for Pyrex and Anchor Hocking? I'm not looking for pricing; just a guideline for my collection.

      I don't have anything bookmarked. I think that Pyrex and Fire King are probably covered here on CW and there should be several other online resources. You can learn a lot from Ebay if you are careful not to believe everything you read.
