Made in the United States

A note from Geoff on Tuesday 2nd January 2006
"Well, this must seem like a very impractical purchase!!!
--- and it most probably will never be used!!!
However, Sharon has numerous "old" items on her kitchen shelves
and this should look great displayed along with her depression glass, scales and canisters"
