Item Number: 550-ITS
Diameter: 8″
Production Dates: 1915-1958
The Fostoria Glass Company produced two Ice Tub Plates in the American line. The one that we will be addressing in this post is the Small Ice Tub Plate, which was first produced in 1915. Both sizes feature a tab on each side of the tub, ensuring easy handling and passing of said item.
Often, you will see the Ice Tubs sold without the Plate, and this could be for a variety of reasons. Over the years, people might have thought the Ice Tub Plate was just another ordinary plate and separated it from the Ice Tub – or the Ice Tub was originally bought separately (without the Plate). For a view of the item that sits on top of the Small Ice Tub Plate, please refer to the Small Ice Tub.
As an eBay Partner, I may be compensated if you make a purchase on eBay. The following link shows available Ice Tubs/Plates on eBay. Please note that your search might offer very little results, as over the years, many Ice Tub Plates have been separated from their Ice Tubs. However, keep searching because every now and again, you will see the correct duo listed.
